Story

Our Town, the timeless drama of life in the village of Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire, has become an American classic with universal appeal. Thornton Wilder’s most frequently performed play, Our Town appeared on Broadway in 1938 to wide acclaim and won the Pulitzer Prize. This production will be the first major Broadway revival of the play in nearly 25 years.

Everything old is new again...almost
"Marvelous staging of this classic play with a wonderfully diverse cast that adds an up-to-date, honest view while preserving the traditional perspective. Jim Parsons seems made for the role of Stage Manager and does a bang up sympathetic job. Hardly a dry eye around me (me too). Thank you, thank you for this overdue staging! Hope it gets extended! It deserves to!"

Living Life to its Fullest!
"Outstanding-Poignant The cliché 'Life is short'- is conveyed brilliantly by Jim Parsons. Life. Love. Death. I feel confident in saying the audience experienced every emotion from beginning to end. I will cherish this performance forever. "
