Our Town is an American classic that, through a combination of acting and storytelling, presents the story of the fictional small town of Grover's Corners. In three acts, "Daily Life," "Love and Marriage," and "Death and Dying," we encounter a range of experiences and emotions that are universal, regardless of gender, race, or country of origin. In the great American tradition of art that celebrates and mourns everyday bits of life, Our Town shows us with its direct language and unsentimental portrayals, that the "simple things" are rarely that. "Our Town is not a play about the evaporated glory of simpler yesteryears. On the contrary, it whispers to us the urgent necessity of living in the here and now - which is all anybody in Grover's Corners ever had, all anybody anywhere really has." ~ Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
