Described by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written,” OUR TOWN depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually die. What at first glance appears to be a simple, innocuous portrait of small-town life, builds to a soaring exploration of human existence: its boundless trials, joys, questions, certainties.
“One of the sagest, warmest, and most deeply human scripts to come out of our
theatre.”
—New York Post
"OUR TOWN has proved
that instead of being only a play of the moment when it was first seen, it is a
play of every moment. People just need to take the time, to paraphrase Wilder,
to realize it."
—The Guardian
