MusicalTalk Mini 72: David Herzog on OUR TOWN
After many, many years, MusicalTalk Mini returns! In this revived short-form format, David Herzog brings his expert eye to the Welsh National Theatre's touring production of Our Town . With its stripped-back staging, timeless themes, and delicate balance between nostalgia and existential reflection, how does this iconic American classic fare on a contemporary UK tour? David explores the production's creative choices, performances, and emotional impact, considering whether this intimate revival captures the quiet power of Thornton Wilder's masterpiece — or loses its way in translation!
