‘Our Town’ Review: Jim Parsons and Katie Holmes Charm in Reimagining of the Broadway Classic
In Kenny Leon's adaptation of Thorton Wilder's classic play, "Our Town" Jim Parsons and Katie Holmes are fantastic as citizens of Grover's Corners.
Days in Grover’s Corners consist of milk deliveries, baseball, choir practices, conversations around the dinner table and even a young couple falling in love. Across three acts—one at the turn of the century, the second in 1904, and the final set in 1913 (and all three condensed in this production into one intermission-less evening)—audiences watch as Grover’s Corners, its citizens and these two families grow and change. In another, Mrs. Webb and Mrs. Gibbs return home late from choir practice with the gossip-loving Mrs. Soames (Julie Halston) in a tizzy over Simon Stimson’s (Donald Webber Jr.) drunken antics.
