Our Town

by Thornton Wilder

Presented June 2002 at Paris Hill Academy

Sponsored by Biz Realty.

Directed by Tom Littlefield.

Thornton Wilder created a classic that was meaningful when first presented in 1938 and that continues to grow in timeliness as our lives have grown faster and more complicated in the years since then.

People do not take the time and energy to connect with the individual moments in life that make life meaningful. Even what we would consider to be the most mundane mements are precious and to be treasured. The smallest gesture or word contains enough meaning to be valued. (Adapted from Tom Littlefield's director's note.)
