Trident Theater Co. brings 'Our Town' to our town Nov. 5-7

For the cast of Buena Vista High School’s upcoming production of Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town,” portraying the ordinary lives of residents in a small New England community has become an exercise in appreciating the small moments of life and recognizing how quickly those moments can pass.The Trident Theatre Company will present the Pulitzer Prize-winning American classic Nov. 5-7 at the BVHS Performance Flex, with four performances directed by Brad Fritsch.“I think the play kind of, it acts as a symbol for like finding the importance of life and finding like the importance in mundane things, because we don't really look at those as often as we should,” said cast member Anahli Winters, who plays Mrs. Gibbs, the mother of one of the play’s central characters.Winters said the play also explores the regrets people can experience after losing loved ones, particularly the desire for more time together.“I think it kind of symbolizes regrets that you might have as well,” she said.
