Frank Galati’s The Grapes of Wrath is a powerful and deeply
moving stage version of one of the masterworks of American literature. Set
during the Great Depression, John Steinbeck’s Pulitzer Prize winning story of
the Joad family and their journey from the dust bowl fields of Oklahoma to the
farmlands of California, in search of jobs and a future, has become a testament
to the strength of the human spirit.  It is an inspiring tale of courage
and the persistence to survive against insurmountable odds – a timeless message
that still holds true today as the novel celebrates its 75th Anniversary.
