DIRECTOR’S NOTELike many of us, I first encountered John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men at school. I was 13 years old, and on reflection, it was probably the first adult book I had ever read that truly resonated with me on a deeper and more emotional level. Coming from a respectable, British, middle class family I was at that time absolutely way too young, sheltered and naive to fully appreciate the vast context or central mechanism of this beloved and iconic American novel. I had very few plans, they weren’t best laid, and none of them had gone too badly awry thus far.
So, at that particular time, I was clearly compelled, pre-occupied and absorbed by the unusual, amusing and often moving friendship of Lennie and George; two men, through sheer necessity, against the socio-political backdrop of the Great Depression, thrown together, yet so bound to each other in a relationship of co-dependency, that the whole universe of the story always had the potential to implode at any moment they might be pulled apart. As an only child, and a somewhat shy one at that, I identified with, and was intrigued by this extraordinary and unique friendship, and definitely had just enough insight in that respect to appreciate and be affected by Steinbeck’s elegiac depiction of abject loneliness, longing, and isolation amongst his protagonists.
In 2006, I was grateful to be invited by my close friend, Bernard Havard, the Artistic Director, of the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia, to fulfill a long desired professional aspiration to direct a production of the play. We had a sensational cast, that included my good friend and terrific and beloved Philly based actor, Scott Greer, who reprises the role of Lenny here at ATC,

along with long term collaborator, scenic designer, Todd Ivins, who also recreates his beautiful work for this co-production between Arizona Theatre Company and the Milwaukee Rep, where I currently reside as Artistic Director. Revisiting this beloved text years later as an adult, I was struck by Steinbeck’s brilliant, but simple observations of human need and desired connectivity, while arguably offering up one of the most elegant and erudite accounts of characters in search of the American Dream with all its innate fragility on full display. It is sadly, but prophetically true from the poem of Robbie Burns, that inspires the title of this play, that the “Best laid schemes O’ Mice and Men’ oft go awry”, and as we mature, we can assuredly feel this in deeper and darker ways as the years roll on. We reach for our dreams and open ourselves up in ways that expose us to the cruel reality of sometimes only realizing them fleetingly, or perhaps not at all. Of Mice and Men, is ultimately a harsh and cruel tale, but also one that can somehow inspire us to value or take consolation in our own pursuit and personal vision of the American Dream, and continue to dare us to dream that compulsive dream.
Nine years later, I am most grateful to ATC, Artistic Director, David Ira Goldstein, and the Trustees of Milwaukee Repertory Theater, for affording me another opportunity to direct this iconic piece of American literature with a new and equally terrific group of talented/dedicated actors, and a group of creative artists who have put this production together with much love, care and attention, for which I extend my sincere gratitude. I sincerely hope that you find this performance, at least half as fruitful and satisfying, as we have all done so in making it. Mark Clements Director

Now celebrating 49 years, Arizona Theatre Company (ATC) boasts the largest subscriber base of any performing arts organization in Arizona, with more than 130,000 people each year attending performances at the historic Temple of Music and Art in Tucson, and the elegant Herberger Theater Center in downtown Phoenix. Each season of carefully selected productions reflects the rich variety of world drama – from classic to contemporary plays, from musicals to new works, as audiences enjoy a rich emotional experience that can only be captured through live theatre. Touching lives through the power of theatre, ATC is the preeminent professional theatre in the state of Arizona. Under the direction of Artistic Director David Ira Goldstein, ATC operates in two cities – unlike any other League of Resident Theatres (LORT) company in the country.
ATC shares the passion of the theatre through a wide array of outreach programs, educational opportunities, access initiatives and community events. Through the schools and summer programs, ATC focuses on teaching Arizona’s youth about literacy, cultural development, performing arts, specialty techniques used onstage, and opens their minds to the creative power of dramatic literature. With approximately 450 Learning & Education activities annually, ATC reaches far beyond the metropolitan areas of Tucson and Phoenix, enriching the theatre learning experience for current and future audiences.
The mission of Arizona Theatre Company is to inspire, engage and entertain – one moment, one production and one audience at a time
