Of Mice and Men - Opera Australia Overview The praise just keeps coming for award-winning tenor Anthony Dean Griffey. Now, at last, he makes his Sydney debut in a signature role, Lennie, in Carlisle Floyd’s Of Mice and Men. George and Lennie are migrant farmhands during the Great Depression. Their only home is a communal bunkhouse under the lonely prairie skies. But they are different to their fellow workers. They have a plan, a dream of buying a farm and making a life. If, that is, George can keep Lennie, who has the strength of a giant, but the mind of a child, out of trouble… Legendary film director Bruce Beresford continues his exploration of New World opera with the Australian premiere Of Mice and Men, based on John Steinbeck’s 1937 novella. |
