This staging of The Grapes of Wrath, the story of tenant farmers fleeing the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression in pursuit of jobs, dignity and a future, is inspired by this 75th anniversary year since the publication of John Steinbeck’s epic novel.

Granada Artist-in-Residence Miles Anderson directs with a mixture of original music and traditional American folk songs, and sets and lighting by internationally renowned designer Thomas J. Munn.

There will be an audience talkback with director, cast, crew, and designers immediately following the performance on Friday, March 7. There will be a talkback with scholars after the performance on Thursday, March 13.

The Department of Theatre and Dance will be hosting an all-day interdisciplinary Grapes of Wrath Symposium on Friday, March 7, to explore the work directly as well as the larger social, cultural and historical issues it raises.
