Our Town

Described by Edward Albee as “ . . . the greatest American play ever
written, ” the story follows the small town of Grovers’ Corners
through three acts: “Daily Life”, “Love and Marriage”, and “Death and
Eternity”.
Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and
sets, the audience follows the Webb and Gibbs families as their
children fall in love, marry, and eventually – in one of the most
famous scenes in American theatre – die.
Following the daily lives of the Gibbs and Webb families, as well as
the other inhabitants of Grovers’ Corners, Wilder illustrates the
importance of the universality of the simple, yet meaning ful lives of
all people in the world in order to demonstrate the value of appreciating life.
