The Grapes of Wrath

Houston Theatre Company presents The Grapes of Wrath, based on the classic novel by John Steinbeck. Running July 8 through 17 in the University of St. Thomas-Jones Hall.

Directed by Rebecca Bernstein, The Grapes of Wrath is the familiar story of the down-on-their-luck Joad family who must leave everything behind that is near and dear to them and strike off in hopes of finding a better life.

The diverse cast features:

Brian Heaton – the 2012 and 2013 Best Actor of the Splatterfest short film competition – as Tom Joad. Popular local actress Sheryl Croix as Ma Joad. Neil Ellis Orts as Pa Joad. Steven Martinez as the irrepressible Grandpa Joad. And featuring Sasha Redmon as vocal soloist.

Olivia Clayton as Rose of Sharon is captivating in her portrayal of the young pregnant woman that rises to greatness from tragic circumstances.
