North Star Theater Company (NSTC) presents the acclaimed Pulitzer Prize winning play, "OUR TOWN", by Thorton Wilder. Directed by Christa Piper of Hamburg, "OUR TOWN" will be performed at Sussex County Community College's Chapel Theatre on November 18 & 19 (8pm), November 19 & 20 (3 pm).
The great playwright Edward Albee called "OUR TOWN", "The greatest American play ever written." Broken into three acts, the play takes place in the small town of Grover's Corners, and is narrated by a stage manager, played by Phil Cocilovo of Montague.
The play depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families (Mr. & Mrs. Webb, Joseph Spagna, Stockholm and Hilary Beirne, Andover, Mr. & Mrs. Gibbs, Walter Stanek, Byram & Kim Knabb, Vernon/ Lynda Kolvik, Newton). The Gibbs children, George and Rebecca, are played by Alexander McCully, Newton & Addison Smith, Franklin (alternating with McKenna Vasquez, Jefferson), and the Webb children, Emily (Cassandra N. Barckett, Pompton Lakes & Leanna Mentone, Vernon) and Wally (Damian Vince, Vernon & Ayden Murphy, Newton).
Director Christa Piper says "Our Town, by Thorton Wilder, is a wonderful show that explores life in an ordinary town, with ordinary people. Through the course of the show, the audience is shown how simple life and love can be, and at the same time, how complicated and beautiful they are as well. Time was different in the early 1900's, yet is it really that different now? Community, family and friends always come together when needed. There is hope in love and life!".
