 Of Mice and Men
By John Steinbeck
September 14 - October 7, 2012
A love letter to the American West written on a postcard
John Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men is the heart-wrenching tale about George and Lennie, an unlikely pair of migrant workers armed with only the dream of a better life and each other. With Lennie’s innocence consistently getting them into trouble George must protect them both as they begin work at a new ranch run by the mean-spirited boss’s son Curly. Their dreams begin to appear possible until Curly’s beautiful and lonely wife changes their lives forever.
 Oklahoma!
By Rodgers and Hammerstein
November 9 - December 9, 2012
Based on Lynn Riggs’ 1931 play, Green Grow the Lilacs, Oklahoma! was the first musical collaboration between Rodgers and Hammerstein and spawned the hits “Oh, What a Beautiful Morning” and “Oklahoma” among many others. Often revived on Broadway and winner of numerous Tony Awards, this musical is sure to delight audiences of all ages! Oklahoma! is considered one of the most influential works in American Musical Theatre and Perseverance is proud to bring this amazing musical to Juneau audiences.
 Betrayal
By Harold Pinter
January 11 - February 3, 2013
Betrayal can only happen if you love
Robert and Jerry are best friends. Robert and Emma are married. Jerry and Emma are lovers. Over nine years, feelings are masked and words are used in a struggle for power as the price of passion is paid and layers of hidden truth are revealed. Nobel Prize-winning author Harold Pinter’s modern classic is an intricate, intimate unveiling of the moments leading to the ultimate break in trust. In its 33 years, Perseverance has never produced Harold Pinter – we look forward to sharing this Nobel Prize-winning author’s work with you!
 Plays under consideration by:
Sarah Ruhl,
Madeline George,
and Karen Zacarías
March 8 - 31, 2013
Perseverance is considering a variety of plays for the fourth slot next season. We strive to not only bring you great classics and world premieres, but to keep our audiences in touch with a variety of writers and plays that are currently circulating in the contemporary theatre. Past season performances of Boom, Doubt, and this season's The 39 Steps and Animals Out of Paper are examples of this kind of work. Currently under consideration are plays by Sarah Ruhl, Madeline George, and Karen Zacarías among others.
 the road weeps, the well runs dry
By Marcus Gardley
May 3 - 26, 2013
Surviving centuries of slavery, revolts, and The Trail of Tears, a community of self-proclaimed Freemen (Black Seminoles and people of mixed origins) incorporate the first all-black U.S. town in Wewoka, Oklahoma. But the very foundations of the town are rocked when the new religion and the old way come head to head. Written in gorgeously cadenced language, utilizing elements of black folklore and daring humor, the road weeps, the well runs dry merges the myth, folklore, and history of the Black Seminole people.
