The Grapes Of Wrath
A co-production with Nuffield Southampton Theatres, Nottingham Playhouse and West Yorkshire Playhouse.
Based on the classic novel by John Steinbeck, The Grapes Of Wrath is a moving story of hope and survival. The Oklahoma landscape is barren, crops turn to dust and farmers are forced from their land. The Joad family, driven by desperation, join thousands of families to undertake an epic journey west to California in search of a new life.
This timely production about human resilience in the face of catastrophe is directed by Abbey Wright and features a community chorus with live music from Matt Regan.
