    Don't miss the Crighton Players presentation of Our Town, a classic drama by Thorton Wilder and directed by Grace Thompson.  Performances Friday – Saturday @ 8:00 pm March 5-6, 12-13, 19-20, 26-27 and Sunday Matinees @ 2pm March 14, 21, 28.

    'Our Town' is one of the most frequently staged American plays. It is an unconventional work in that it has no scenery or props except for tables, chairs, ladders, and a few other objects. When actors dine, they hold imaginary utensils and eat imaginary food. When looking out an upper-story window, they stand on ladders. When the milkman makes deliveries from his horse-drawn cart, there is no horse or cart, although the audience may hear clip-clops or whinnies. And so goes the entire play. Author Thornton Wilder presented the play in this way so the audience would concentrate on the characters and the themes.

    An American classic, Thorton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play is a rich, engaging story exploring the lives of people living in a quintessetial American small town at the turn of the 20th Century.

    “Beautiful and remarkable... A spiritual experience” – NY Post

    “No American play describes more powerfully how we imagine ourselves…” – New York Daily News
