Brooks Atkinson, in his review of Our Town’s first performance, wrote: “Taking as his material three periods in the history of placid New Hampshire town, Mr. Wilder has transmuted the simple events of human life into universal reverie. He has given familiar facts a deeply moving philosophical perspective….Our Town is, in this columnist’s opinion, one of the finest achievements of the current stage.” First produced and published in 1938, at which time it won the Pulitzer Prize, this drama of life in the small village of Grover’s Corners has become an American classic and is Thornton Wilder’s most renowned and most frequently performed play.
