Answer:
It was late on a Saturday when I took the biggest decision of my life: I agreed with a group of friends to a haunted house to "see what the thrill was all about".
I knew that if I told my Aunt Emelda, she would forbid me from going so I decided to sneak out and meet them at a rendezvous. We were four in number, Josh, Troy, Todd and me.
Josh brought a large torch and water, Troy came with a shovel, for what reason I did not know, Todd came with a camera, and me, well, I came with sandwiches in case we got hungry.
We entered the haunted house by half-past nine and immediately we step foot on the front porch, there was this eerie feeling we all had, but we were determined to see the end of it all, so we soldiered on.
Suddenly, the torch Josh was with went off and refused to turn on, and we began to hear a screeching sound like a cat scratching on the walls, we decided we had had enough and ran off. Todd was crying, Troy was screaming his head off, but me, well, that experience will linger on my mind for a long time.
Answer:
It might be contended that the intrusion of the Stage Manager has the continuous effect of reminding the audience that they are not watching reality but are watching a play. This effect is also enhanced by the fact that there are virtually no props or backdrops. If anything has to be moved it is not done behind a closed curtain. Stagehands simply walk in and do whatever is needed. In the cemetery scene the dead people are not lying down but are all sitting straight up on wooden chairs--and yet this is the most moving scene in the play. We are especially moved by the presence of young Emily, who had such optimistic hopes and dreams and plans but died in childbirth. She doesn't seem to belong among all these old people who have lived their lives.
The play Our Town is remarkable in respect to the thematic changes that it undergoes. The play traces the development of life, and shows how people go through birth, youth, love and death in the same way. This does not make the experiences of people less unique. In fact, it makes them more so, as it connects all humans in a similar way.
Wilder ends the play with the topic of death. This serves two purposes. On the one hand, this illustrates how all lives end, and the impact that death has on those who remain. It also suggests that death is the ultimate "end," which is why it becomes the end in the play as well. The second purpose is to remark on the fact that humans rarely appreciate their lives while they have it, and they forget to think of the inevitability and reality of death.
