Our Town—An American Masterpiece Comes to Life in Gata de Gorgos

Thornton Wilder’s Our Town is more than a play—it’s a meditation on what truly matters. Set in the early 1900s in a quintessential small American town, the story quietly unfolds across the familiar rhythms of daily life, creating a moving portrait of birth, love, and loss. Its characters are timeless and relatable, inviting us to see the extraordinary in the ordinary.

Wilder reminds us that our enduring identity isn’t found in grand gestures or fleeting events, but in our fresh and conscious relationship to life’s simple moments—the morning cup of coffee, the glance across the dinner table, the sound of children playing outside.

Directed by Claire Schoonover, this new production captures the heart of Wilder’s vision with grace and humanity.

Praised for its profound simplicity and visionary insight, Our Town has resonated with millions across generations. This is a rare opportunity to experience a truly iconic piece of American theatre.

Performances – October 29 to November 1, 2025 at Gata de Gorgos

Mark your calendars. A timeless story awaits.
