How is it that this quintessentially American masterpiece continues to resonate so profoundly in places where both “our” and “town” mean radically different things?

STAGES with Peter Eyers'We all know that something is eternal' - Arts Administrator, Advocate and Author, Howard ShermanA work of startling originality when it debuted in 1938, Thornton Wilder's Our Town evolved to be seen by some as a vintage slice of early 20th Century Americana, rather than being fully appreciated for its complex and eternal themes and its deceptively simple form. Another day's Begun: Thornton Wilder's Our Town in the Twentieth Century is a new book that shines a light on the play's continued impact in the 21st century and makes a case for the healing powers of Wilder's text to a world confronting multiple crises.
