Audience Reviews for Our Town

  • Feb 07, 2009
    Perhaps I should justify this. My apologies to those more enlightened who found something meaningful in Our Town. The performances were well executed. My impression was that of a long-winded melodrama that came off as a cross between Picnic (1950 w/ William Holden) and My Dinner With Andre -both of which I liked. Worse, the premises and issues were givens. I do realize this wasn't its purpose. but I think this play missed a chance to be a devastating indictment of the periodic corruption, hypocrisy, small-mindedness, and maliciousness that tend to underlie so many communities. This could have been done subtly or even by use of exaggeration, say by making it just over Norman Rokwell-esque enough to make us suspicious. Nevertheless, I guess I wanted something with more cleverness, along the lines of Main Street, USA. But I will admit it's been years since I saw it and perhaps deserves another viewing now that I'm older.
