Our Town
Our Town is a play by Thornton Wilder. The play, set on a basically bare stage, has little action. As the narrator, the Stage Manager, says, "nothing exciting happens in Grover's Corners." It is a story about character, the interactions between people as they live their ordinary lives. Our Town opened on February 4, 1938 in New York City.
