Our Town kicks off Parkway Playhouse’s 78th Mainstage Season and will be showing May 23rd-June 1st. Directed by Erika Tyner, this moving show explores the simple beauty and profound meaning of everyday life in the fictional town of Grover’s Corners, New Hampshire, between 1901 and 1913. Through the eyes of the Stage Manager, the play follows the lives of two families, the Webbs and the Gibbs, as they experience birth, marriage, and death. The play’s minimalist staging and focus on the ordinary, rather than the extraordinary, highlight the importance of appreciating the small moments and the connections that bind us together.
