The classic American play Our Town explores the ordinary lives of the Gibbs and Webb families and their neighbors in Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, in the early 20th century. The story begins with an ordinary day in the town, then follows the courtship and marriage of George Gibbs and Emily Webb. However, the play takes a poignant turn with Emily's death and her journey to the afterlife, where she converses with other dead persons and ultimately returns to life, only to find it's not what she expected.
