About

Our Town

By Thornton Wilder

For the citizens of Grover’s Corners, life is sweet. The doctor makes house calls, the teenage boy delivers the paper and the Boy-Next-Door meets the Girl-Next-Door. Set in an All-American small town at the turn of the century, this 80th anniversary production of Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play is a heartwarming and deeply moving reminder to appreciate life while one has it and to relish every moment – no matter how mundane it seems – for it is those small moments that are truly miraculous. A partnership production with UNC School of the Arts. Performances at Hanesbrands Theatre in Winston-Salem.

'Our Town' a spare, lyrical reminder of the value of life
Winston-Salem Journal

Triad Stage’s ‘Our Town’ celebrates 80th year of classic play
Winston-Salem Journal
February 11, 2018

In 1938, Thornton Wilder’s groundbreaking play “Our Town” first appeared in New York City. Its approach to telling the story of a small American town in the early 1900s — no set, minimal props — led it to the 1938 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. In celebration of the play’s 80th year, Triad Stage is partnering with the UNC School of the Arts to bring the classic to the Hanesbrands Theatre, with previews beginning Feb. 14.
