Our Town is a play about small-town life written by legendary playwright, Thornton Wilder. It takes place in a town called Grover’s Corners and depicts the life and love of Emily Webb and George Gibbs along with the stories of their neighbors, friends, and families. The story is led by a character who is called “Stage Manager” and acts like a sort of narrator in the course of the story, and this character makes it “a-play-within-a-play”. Although this show is a tale about little life, it dives deep into the true essence of mortality and what it means to live. It is an inspiring and heartbreaking story that offers moral truths about how wonderful life really is.
Little Women the Musical is a musical adaptation of, Little Women, a classic novel by Louisa May Alcott. Using music, it portrays the lives of Jo March, her three sisters, her lovely mother, and the many people who touched her life. It grapples with themes of grief, love, societal pressures, longing, and all of the other small beauties that come with a life full of dreams. It is a wonderful mix of humor and fun along with love and heartache. Its wonderfully developed characters and truthfulness to life will have you hooked from the very beginning.
