Sanford High School Theater Company presents Thornton Wilder’s timeless American classic, Our Town at Sanford Performing Arts Center. Performances will be held on Friday, November 14 at 7 pm, Saturday, November 15 at 7 pm, and Sunday, November 16 at 2 pm. Set in the small town of Grover’s Corners, Our Town tells the universal story of everyday life, love, and loss. Through simple yet profound moments, the play invites audiences to reflect on what it means to truly appreciate the beauty in ordinary days. Wilder’s masterful storytelling continues to resonate with audiences nearly a century after its debut. This production features a cast of 22 talented SHS students, including Braeden Landry as the omniscient Stage Manager, Anna Brown as the spirited Emily Webb, and Jack Van Gieson as the earnest George Gibbs. “Our Town reminds us all to slow down and recognize the extraordinary in the everyday,” said director Brett Williams. “Our students have found deep meaning in this story, connecting its themes of family and friendship to their own experiences growing up in Sanford.” Tickets are $13 for adults, $10 for seniors and active military, and free for students. Come celebrate live theater and the remarkable work of Sanford’s young artists!
