Not / Our Town

ATTENTION! EXCITING NEWS! Due to popular demand, an extra show has been added to Wednesday, November 30! This will be a Pay-What-You-Can performance that will feature all the hidden gem options that have yet to be selected (or were selected the least often) in all previous performances! Come see a version of Not / Our Town that is guaranteed to be a version no one has seen before!

With Not / Our Town, Pony World Theatre tackles the most iconic American classic: Our Town by Thornton Wilder. Some people love Our Town, while others definitely do Not. Some people don't know it at all. So how much this production feels like Our Town or Not will be up to audiences! Before each show, the audience will take a survey with options for several different scenes and staging styles--do you want to see teenagers on ladders or things falling from the ceiling? The winning votes determine that night's performance. This is not improvised theatre, but instead numerous variations of the script. Does someone need to know or appreciate the original Our Town to enjoy this unusual overhaul of a classic tale about life and family? Absolutely NOT. No matter what, Not / Our Town tells a story of family, community, and those journeys in life common to us all.
