Not bad at all if you really have to see it again.

Reminds us of what an extraordinary work Our Town is and will always be, as long as it's handled by real pros.

If you missed the sold-out Westport Country Playhouse's production of Our Town, now is your chance to see what made it so incredibly special.

Audience Reviews for Our Town

Feb 07, 2009Perhaps 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.Pamela D Super Reviewer
