RICHARD S Jun 28 This is as good as it gets. I've seen a lot of Newman, but this is truly him at his best, And the whole production is the best I've ever seen of Our Town. This one should be much more widely appreciated! See more 09/12/2018 Reminds me of Prairie Home Companion See more 11/28/2013 There's something eternal in each one of us.

See more 01/09/2011 I saw a production of this at my local theater recently, and was interested in seeing this for comparison. While it's more effective when seen live, this is an excellent production of a classic play. It's a bit long and dragged-out, but the third act is well worth everything else.

This is not a revelatory production, it's true to the script, and doesn't take many chances. Really, the joy here is in the performances. Lots of great work on display, but the real draw is Newman as the Stage Manager. It is really quite affecting, and I found myself with tears in my eyes as I watched him work. Just the knowledge that he has left us, and that this was his last stage performance...it's quite emotional to think about. See more Read all reviews
