6 of these 36 names have a person record behind them and link to one. The other 30 are set from the identifier in the cast list, which is a slug of the name, so hyphens and full stops are lost and a few come out wrong. We hold nothing else about them. Nobody here is matched to a character: the cast list records who was in the company and not what they played.

These came out of a wiki table. The names arrived with the table's own cell markup on them and have been stripped back. They are not linked to person records because the identifiers in that table do not resolve to ours.

Producer

Lincoln Center Theater (Gregory Mosher: Director; Bernard Gersten: Executive Producer)

A producer is one string on this record, however many people or companies it names. Directors and choreographers are held both as text and as identifiers; where an identifier exists the name links to a page.

What this page does not know

• No photograph of this staging.
• No recording is held for Our Town at all.
• Reviews, box office, running order, understudies and designers: none of it is held for any production.
