Touching, yet unsentimental — tender, yet heart-breaking, Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Our Town" is a pensive look surrounding the lives of two families in the fictitious hamlet of Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire. While a literal time capsule of early 20th century America, the story’s power transcends era and locale with its universally timeless themes of love, loss and the fleeting nature of life.
