Welcome to the small town of Grover’s Corners and to the story of the Webb and Gibbs families, as told in three acts: “Daily Life,” “Love and Marriage” and “Death and Eternity.” Described by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written” Our Town takes us on a journey through the joys & simple pleasures and the trials & tribulations of everyday life. As in the best of all stories, it reflects the human condition, makes us think, and causes us to feel, to laugh, to cry. It delivers a masterclass of storytelling that cements Our Town and Thornton Wilder’s place in American Theatre history and in the hearts of audiences everywhere.
Tickets are $20 (regular admission)
