Our Town

Palo Alto Players

November 3-November 19, 2006

Avg. Event Rating (3.5 Stars): Add Review/Comment

Change comes slowly to a small New Hampshire town in the early 20th century. People grow up, get married, live, and die. Milk and the newspaper get delivered every morning, and nobody locks their front doors. This classic is a must-see.

    I was disappointed with the overall mood of this production. Where "Our Town" is so often charming and refreshingly down-to-earth, this production suffered from sluggish pacing, which made the plot crawl and the actors seem lethargic. There were some bright spots, though. John Baldwin brought engaging energy and conviction to Editor Webb, and Jessica Lynn Carroll transitioned expertly between child and adult, with a lovely, melodic speaking voice. Collapse

    I had never seen Our Town before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. This is an excellent production, with an outstanding cast. The show's message (take time to live life while you can) rings true today. It is truly an ensemble cast and all do a great job. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is I really didn't like that the scrim was still down during the curtain call. I highly recommend this show! Collapse
