Our Town Act 3, part 2, Penelope Ann Miller monologue

Kid age best to see this appreciate life etc.

This actress makes it work it's her we're watching, the screenplay is commonplace fiction was popular in those days, Alfred Hitch, sci fi of the 50's etc. ............ but it does say live for the moment, at least, as a sub plot

Man the the Bool is so boring I have to read it even if I don't want to 4 my class yeak
ufff but see in is more interesting than the book I prefer Twilight or HP!

Miller is amazing! so talented <3

anyone who can get to new york right now needs to see Our Town at Barrow Street.

Unbelievable.

I saw it and it was unbelievable!

I watch this entire play in class, and it was just wonderful. It was so full of emotions.

this was beautifully done

I understand that your comment was directed towards PAM, but I just think that you really cannot overact this part, because it is so emotional. I've seen it done where Emily just screamed the whole thing, so I thought PAM's reflective, plaintive way was refreshing.

I wholeheartledly agree...this is an emotional part of the play. And my apologies...not big fan of PAM. Screaming??? that's not what Thornton Wilder had in mind I don't think...unless he wanted this produced in Noh theatre...LOL...compared to Noh PAM is pretty calm...LOL..but you are correct of your previous analysis of this part of the play...Emily does realize she did pass up a chance to live and there is regret about not doing that. Sad, but I think we all do that sometimes!!

I believe if I saw this with Emily screaming, I'd be very upset.
