Our Town

Our+Town

Monday September 23, Canton High School juniors, all American literature students, attended a play, Our Town, at Southwestern Oklahoma State University.. Our Town is a play by American author Thorton Wilder.. 

The play is about two 1900s American families, and details their journeys through life and love and death. “I liked that the play had a small amount of props and a small, interactive cast,” Ethan Foster, junior, said. 

“When I found out Southwestern was doing Our Town for its fall play, I knew I had to take my juniors. When I saw the tears in Act 3, I was glad we went. This was an opportunity not everyone gets,” Meridith Barney, English teacher, said.
