Children’s Theatre – “Our Town”

Archive
October 22 & 24
Santa Susana High School MUR

Come support our local high school students!

Our Town is a Pulitzer Prize for Drama written by American playwright Thornton Wilder in 1938. Described by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written”, it presents the fictional American town of Grover’s Corners between 1901 and 1913 through the everyday lives of its citizens. Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and sets, the play depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually – in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre – confront death. To this day, Our Town remains one of the most produced plays in American theatre.
