First Look: The Broadway Revival of Our Town Starring Jim Parsons

A revival of the American classic Our Town is back on Broadway this fall at the Barrymore Theatre under the direction of Tony Award winner Kenny Leon. Starring four-time Emmy Award winner Jim Parsons, Our Town returns to Broadway for the first time in over 20 years. Hailed by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written,” Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning classic will shine in a meaningful new production.

Our Town explores life in the fictional New Hampshire town of Grover’s Corners between 1901 and 1913. A stage manager narrates the daily lives of its locals, depicting the life cycles of George Gibbs and Emily Webb, whose childhood friendship blossoms into romance and marriage. This love sets the stage for the story of a small town highlighting the magnificent truths of what it means to be alive.

Take a look at the new production photos below.
