Directed by Mary Robinson, the limited engagement will continue through Nov. 3.

The cast includes Bill Cwikowski as Candy, Steven Fehr as Carlson, Patrick Halley as Curley, Paul Kiernan as The Boss, Sekou Laidlow as Crooks, Andy Rindlisbach as Whit, S.A. Rogers as Slim, Joe Tapper as George, Georgia Warner as Curley's Wife and Mark David Watson as Lennie.

Here's how PTC bills the classic: "George and Lennie first stepped onto the stage over seventy-five years ago, and have since entered into the American consciousness as mythic characters. Steinbeck's moving and tragic story, taught to generations of American high school students, is a powerful fable about the human impulse to make — and hold onto — spiritual connections with our fellow men."

Other members of the creative team include scenic designer James Noone, costume designer K.L. Alberts, lighting designer Michael Gilliam, sound designer Matthew Tibbs, hair and makeup designer Amanda French, fight choreographer Kiernan and dramaturg Alexandra Harbold.
