## Overview

Our Town and Other Plays is a Penguin Group collection featuring three seminal American plays by Thornton Wilder. Celebrated for its realistic portrayal of early 20th-century life and profound thematic depth, this edition is a top-rated resource for students and theatre lovers alike, blending cultural significance with accessible storytelling.

## Description

Finding the theatre of the 1920s lacking in bite and conviction, Thornton Wilder set out to bring back realism and to celebrate the innocent, simple and religious. Yet he also tried to endow individual experience with cosmic significance and Our Town is both an affectionate portrait of American life and 'an attempt to find a value above all price for the smallest events in our daily life'. The Skin of our Teeth deals with human survival in a 'comic strip' way, and The Matchmaker is a hilarious farce which urges rebellion against all the constraints that deny a rich, full life.

*by B***N on 12 March 2021*

This edition was great. Not only the beautiful Pulitzer Prioze winning play but tons of history, information about the development of the play and candid comments from Thornton Wilder. Also some rare pictures of performances and production personnel. A gem.
