No scenery was used. The audience arrived to find an emp- ty stage before them with the Stage Manager, one of the principal actors, loun- ging in the background, watching the new arrivals. Such a setting was rather different from the usual types of plays presented by high school groups. In the first act the author genially outlines the hostory of the town, which is Grover’s Corners, N.H., and something of the character of its citizens. Then he carries you into the houses of the Gibbs and Webb families, substantial homes containing substantial folk. You arrive at breakfast time and are carried through one entire day in the lives of these good people. The second act concerns the love affair between young George Gibbs and little Emily Webb, and thus culminates in a moving wedding scene, which contains all those elements of poignant sorrow and abundant happiness that make for solemni- ty and impressiveness. In the third act we are led to the cemetery on the hill, where many of the fine townspeople we have come to know so well are patiently and smilingly awaiting not judgment but greater understanding. Into their midst is led the bride, a little timid at first, a little wishful to go back to life, to live again with her memories. But she is shown how impossible, how futile it is to return. The past cannot be relived. Living people, humans, occupied with their petty occupa tions and small thoughts, know little of true joy or happiness. Truth is to be found only in the future. 10
