FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CSN THEATRE PROGRAM PRESENTS THORNTON WILDER’S “OUR TOWN”
October 13 2025

PREMIERING NOVEMBER 6, 2025

Experience a profound and deeply intimate journey through the ordinary moments that make up an extraordinary life. The College of Southern Nevada (CSN) Theatre AA Program proudly presents Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, Our Town. This production presents a raw and unfiltered view of the cycles of life, love, and loss in the fictional small town of Grover’s Corners. What makes this staging truly unique is that the entire world of Grover’s Corners—from the choir to the Stage Manager—is brought to life exclusively by the CSN community. Talents from across the campus, including students, staff, and faculty, have united on stage to deliver this classic drama with a palpable sense of authenticity and collective passion. Don’t miss this powerful, homegrown production that asks us to truly see and appreciate the fleeting beauty of “everyday life.”

Under the visionary direction of CSN Theatre Faculty, Adrienne Showker, this staging of Our Town transcends traditional theatre. Showker explores non-traditional and metatheatrical performance devices, deliberately breaking the “fourth wall” and employing stark, unconventional techniques that draw attention to the act of performance itself. This raw approach promises to create a powerful bond between the performers and the audience, resulting in a truly unforgettable viewing experience that refreshes a timeless classic.

Our Town opens at CSN Performing Arts Center’s Backstage Theatre on Thursday, November 6th, at 7 p.m., with additional performances scheduled on November 7th, 8th, 14th, and 15th at 7 p.m. and closes with a matinee performance on November 16th at 4 p.m.

General admission is $10 and $5 for students and seniors. For more information, or to purchase tickets, please visit us online at: www.csn.edu/pac.

CSN’s Performing Arts Center provides quality artistic, cultural, educational, and entertainment opportunities for the college and the community. It is located at 3200 East Cheyenne Avenue in North Las Vegas, 89030.
