Playful People Productions opens the new year with one of the classic stage plays of all time, Our Town. Written by Thornton Wilder in 1938 and described by Edward Albee as "the greatest American play ever written," Our Town is directed by Stacy Levin and features teen and adult performers. Our Town played on Broadway in 1938 and won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It is Thornton Wilder's most produced play. Despite having premiered 85 years ago, it does not feel dated in its content or its characters. The small town of Grover's Corners could be any town in modern America, the hopes and fears and dreams of its inhabitants the same today as in our grandparents' day.
