Step into the Streets of Old Oconomowoc for a special reader’s theatre production of "Our Town," presented by Oconomowoc High School students and community members in collaboration with Cornerstone History Symposium.Norman Rockwell and Thornton Wilder each captured the essence of American life in their own medium, Wilder through spare, powerful storytelling and Rockwell through richly detailed images of everyday moments. Both drew inspiration from small-town life, illuminating ordinary homes, schools, traditions, and rituals with extraordinary meaning. Together, their work reflects a deep sense of community, continuity, and the universal truths found in simple, daily life.
This unique performance pairs live dramatic readings with projected images of Rockwell’s iconic artwork and evocative background music, creating a layered artistic experience. Surrounded by the immersive backdrop of our Streets of Old Oconomowoc exhibit, audiences will be transported into a world that celebrates small-town life, memory, and the beauty of living deliberately.
