PEOPLE: Groton Resident to Star in "Our Town"

Framingham-based Moonstruck Theater Company, in association with Amazing Things Art Center of Framingham, willp resent the classic American play Our Town, by Thornton Wilder, opening Friday, March 14, and running seven performances through Sunday, March 23, at Amazing Things Art Center, 160 Hollis St., Framingham.

This Pulitzer Prize-winning play is Thornton Wilder's most frequently performed work. Set in the early 20th century in the fictional town of Grover's Corners, NH, the play explores the beauty of love, marriage, family and everyday precious moments that may be taken for granted. Our Town, known for its minimalistic use of set and props, has the Stage Manager narrate the love story of George Gibbs and Emily Webb. As the couple moves through life we are reminded of how important it is to stop and take time to appreciate the significance in simplest moments.

Production features 14 performers from the Boston and MetroWest regions, including Groton resident James Hunt as Simon Stimson, the choir master who is keeping a destructive secret. 

Although having been involved in theater for 35 years, Our Town marks Hunt's Monnstruck Theater Company debut. When not performing, James works as a technical support supervisor at Plumchoice, Inc. in Lowell.

Produced by Caroline Fonseca and directed by Matthew Sherman. Tickets $24 for general admission, $23 senior citizens and students, $21 for Amazing Things Members, and $12 for children 12 and under.
