Our Town

Our town reminded me a lot of the town where I grew up, except this town was way less scandalous. The whole town, and everyone who lives there are just so boring and one dimensional. I had a hard time believing it. The one almost real person in the town was the alcoholic organ player. Everyone in the town was such a goody two shoes that it just annoyed me. I liked how fast the play moved. I found the play pretty sad, especially Emily. Emily had so much potential and she just threw it all away. The only thing Emily accomplished in her life was having a baby, but she didn't get to raise the baby because she died having another one. I enjoyed the message of the play that people don't stop to look around in life and miss whats really important. Overall I think the play is pretty good. It is hard for me to relate to it because the characters are all so good and boring, I don't know anyone or any town where people are like that
