For 75 years Thornton Wilder’s play has played a profound role in American culture. Audiences will watch the citizens of Grover’s Corners as they fall in love, marry and live out their lives. Our Town speaks to the core of our American values and reminds us that no matter the generation, we are all searching for the same things. The American Shakespeare Center returns to The American Theatre with this performance presented in its signature style. This look at ordinary people living ordinary lives has never been more extraordinary.

This engagement of Our Town is partially supported by the Virginia Commission for the Arts and National Endowment for the Arts.
