Our Town by Thornton Wilder

August 15 – August 26

Directed by Jesse Jou

The story of the fictional American small town of Grover’s Corners between 1901 and 1913 through the everyday lives of its citizens. A tender play about how we must embrace and appreciate the value of life itself.

Please Note: the first two Acts of the play will take place in the theatre. Weather permitting, audiences will be guided outdoors to the Pine Ridge Cemetery (located behind the theatre) to experience the final scene.

This final scene of Our Town lasts 30-40 minutes and there will be seating or the option to stand in the cemetery. Ushers will guide the audience to and from this outdoor location.

Schedule and tickets HERE.
