Temecula Valley Players



Last night we went to Old Town Temecula to see "Of Mice & Men" by John Steinbeck presented by the  Temecula Valley Players at the  The Old Town Temecula Community Theater.  I think its amusing that I have handled this book many times in its many editions, but never actually read it or knew the whole plot.  Consequently, the play was very intriguing but sad.  It was well presented and the actors were great.  We look forward to attending more plays by this group.
