An Arab Shepherd Is Searching For His Goat On Mount Zion
An Arab shepherd is searching for his goat on Mount Zion / and on the opposite hill I am searching for my little boy. / An Arab shepherd and a Jewish father / both in their temporary failure. / Our two voices met above / the Sultan’s Pool in the valley between us. / Neither of us wants the boy or the goat / to get caught in the wheels / of the “Chad Gadya” machine. / Afterward we found them among the bushes, / and our voices came back inside us / laughing and crying. / Searching for a goat or for a child has always been / the beginning of a new religion in these mountains.

The whole text has cultural references. Mount Zion, by its use and historical significance, the "sultan's swimming pool", being a specific reference of an Arab culture and the Chad Gaya, for being a musical style. The Arab shepherd, however, enters more into the perspective of common sense, and could be seen, from an alternative perspective, as an emptiness of cultural meaning.

The uniqueness on the narration of our Town uses asides to directly connect with the audience and to break the fourth wall.
The design set is so minimal such that it requires the audience to imagine the settings and props. Play breaks away from demands participation of the audience and from restrictions of realism. The whole of the play Wilder builds a theme of universality when referencing ideas and feelings that transcend location and time.
Through the use of flashbacks, he manipulates time, which emphasizes more on ideas that human life is being fleeting. He represents large numbers and presents town which is far away perspective to illustrate the idea such that human life is important in the context of the universe.
