Here is a spring 2009 production of "Of Mice and Men" which is a great piece of Theater. This is a recording of one of the performances. Obviously one can't expect the same experience watching the recording as you would from a live show since a lot of material beetween the scenes had to be cut; however, most of the dialogue from the original play is intact. You can definitely see the tremendous effort on the part of all involved. The writing (obviously), the directing, the acting, the set, and the lights all mesh together brilliantly in this project. This is a prime example of what great writing and great directing can do for a production. This show was rehearsed in a very small space with just the director, assistant director and the actors present. No sets. No props.The main focus for 4 weeks was just the acting.After 1 week of set building and adding in the Technical values (lights, sound, ect...) this show opened. A mere 5 weeks from nothing to what you're seeing here. It was recorded with a stationary camera and the operator himself was left with the task of cropping in and out of the action of the play depending on how many actors were on stage in a scene so there is not any real editing that has been done to these videos exept for me cutting it into chunks suitable for a You Tube upload.

@TheLilbigcat- Not sure what you're talking about here. Lennie is 4 to 6 inches taller than George. Camera angle maybe?
