Our Town Tickets

Our Town Play Tickets

Kick back and enjoy a 1930s classic after you buy Our Town tickets to see this famous theatrical performance unfold before your very eyes. The original production was written by Thornton Wilder and premiered in 1938 at the McCarter Theatre, Princeton, NJ. First set in 1901, and carried into 1913, the story depicts the lives of average citizens in a fictional small town known as Grover’s Corners in America. What makes the play drastically more unique compared to others is that it uses metatheatrical devices. The play is performed on a bare stage and is centered around the life of a stage manager.

Throughout the performance, the stage manager calls in guest lecturers, addresses the audience members, and even takes on some roles by himself. The original production turned out to be an immediate sensation. Quickly, performances popped up all over the U.S., eventually making its debut in NYC at the Henry Miller’s Theatre in 1938. The theatrical production was instantly applauded by critics, earning Wilder the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Anyone looking for a historically and engaging play should consider purchasing Our Town tickets while they’re still on sale. Just under a decade after its debut, the production was later revived at the New York City Center and ran for 24 performances.

Another famous revival was performed in 1989 at New York City’s Lincoln Center. Our Town received such widespread critical acclaim that it won a Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Revival, as well as a Tony Award for Best Revival. Aside from having a number of decent revivals, several adaptations have been made. A 1940 film of the same name was screened, starring Martha Scott as Emily and William Holden as George Gibbs. Also brought to television was a 1955 musical adaptation, which starred Frank Sinatra as the Stage Manager.
