Of Mice and Men

The Joffrey Ballet's dancers exchange tutus and tights for overalls and Depression-era gloom in this word-premiere adaptation of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men, with choreography by Cathy Marston and a score from Academy Award-nominated composer Thomas Newman. The double-bill show also includes a performance of George Balanchine's 1934 work Serenade, the iconic choreographer's first ballet developed in America.
