Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre’s revival of Our Town is set to begin performances in London May 16. The production of Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize–winning drama, directed by Ellen McDougall, is scheduled to run through June 8.
Our Town follows the story of a small New England town in the early 1990s as its inhabitants grow up, get married and discover the beauty of life.
