OPENING NIGHT! OUR TOWN
By Thornton Wilder
Winner of the 1938 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Our Town is a life-affirming and timeless classic American play. Simple and profound, Our Town opens with the Stage Manager’s introduction to Grover’s Corners, a fictional town based on Peterborough, New Hampshire. Take a walk through time and life in a small town, circa 1901. You’ll meet familiar locals such as Doc Gibbs, Howie Newsome and George and Emily in their day-to day activities, all sharing their lives, loves and losses. Wilder’s beautifully written play is a touching reminder of the short journey we’re all on, and a welcome lesson in having gratitude for the time we have together.
Catch Our Town onstage at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, July 31; Friday, August 3; Tuesday, August 7; Friday, August 10; Monday, August 13; and Wednesday, August 29.

The Mt. Washington Auto Road opens early on three Sundays every summer, allowing guests to drive themselves to the summit of Mount Washington to view the sunrise from the highest peak in the Northeast. Due to the popularity of these sunrise opportunities, we recommend not waiting until the last minute to arrive as you may spend time waiting at the Toll House due to traffic. The State Park building on the summit will be open with limited food service on all three of these mornings.

July 29 Road Opens 4 a.m.; Sunrise at 5:31 a.m.

Over the past few years, The Dustbowl Revival has been making a name for itself with a vibrant mix of vintage Americana sounds. Critics have proclaimed that this eclectic eight-piece band featuring guitar, ukulele, mandolin, fiddle, trumpet, trombone, bass, and drums, “would have sounded utterly at home within the hallowed confines of Preservation Hall in New Orleans’ French Quarter” (Los Angeles Times) and their “upbeat, old-school, All-American sonic safaris exemplify everything shows should be: hot, spontaneous, engaging and, best of all, a pleasure to hear” (L.A. Weekly). Rob Sheffield, in Rolling Stone, hailed them as a great band “whose Americana swing was so fun I went back to see them again the next day.”
