Description

Our Town


Thornton Wilder. Our Town: A Play in Three Acts. New York: Samuel French, Inc. [no date]. 8vo. Numerous lines underlined by Joanne Woodward. Pink wrappers, upper wrapper boldly signed by Woodward.

Woodward's personal copy of the "Acting Edition" of Thornton Wilder's classic play.


After appearing in the 2002-2003 Broadway production of Our Town, Paul Newman reprised his role in the 2003 made-for-television film. Woodward served as executive producer. Of the text underlined by Woodward, the following line is particularly evocative: “The morning star always gets wonderful bright the minute before it has to go.”
