Our Town (Bilingual)
Described by Edward Albee as "the greatest American play ever written," Our Town follows the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry and eventually - in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre - die. Narrated by a stage manager and performed with minimal props and sets, Our Town depicts the small town of Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, through three acts: "Daily Life," "Love and Marriage" and "Death and Eternity." In this new bilingual edition, Emily and the Webb family speak Spanish at home and English with their neighbors, some of whom also speak Spanish. The Stage Manager, the Gibbs family, and most other characters speak English only. The play's stage directions are written in English, and an English translation is provided for all dialogue in Spanish. Infused with layers of culture and community, this new bilingual version of Our Town celebrates Grover's Corners as an international address.

Praise for this book
"You have never seen an Our Town quite like [this] exquisite, emotionally potent production... The language differences give the families a special, specific way of communicating, of underscoring their bonds. You can hear the emotional resonance as the audience responds." - Miami Herald
