Posted: 10/17/24 at 10:54pmI am a huge fan of the Lincoln Center production of Our Town and have tickets to see the revival. Now I am rethinking things. What are your thoughts with seeing Stereophonic instead?

Posted: 10/17/24 at 11:08pmStereophonic is a remarkable play and given the challenge of mounting it with actor-musicians, you might not have a chance to see it done as well regionally.
You can see a good production of Our Town anytime.

Posted: 10/18/24 at 12:32amStereophonic is a fine play and has excellent performances but I believe there are replacements about to join the company and so much is dependent on that ensemble.
Our Town is such a great play and this is a beautifully realized production. Jim Parsons is giving a wonderful performance as the Stage Manager and Katie Holmes, Richard Thomas, Ephraim Sykes and Zoe Deutch are also in top-notch firm. Having never seen it on Broadway, I was truly mesemerized and deeply moved. I would suggest trying to see both productions.
Stereophonic by the way is 3 hours and Our Town is 100 fast-moving minutes...in case you have a time crunch situation.
