9 September - 12 September
Our Town is a celebration of the past, present and future of Kingston.
Kings have been crowned, battles have been fought and ordinary people have gone about their business. Brace yourself for an epic sweep through the history that makes Kingston the community that it is today. Playwright Ciaran McConville and Director Jamie Harper are working with a large company of local actors over the summer to create this new play, with people's individual memories forming an integral part of the story. Full of song, dance and the spoken word, Our Town promises to be a unique spectacle for our distinctive theatre.
