Answer:

Thornton Wilder's play, Our Town, was played using the metatheatrical method, where most of the "scenery" is imagination.

Explanation:

Wilder was dissatisfied with the theatre at his time, so his response was to use the <em>metatheatrical</em> style.

The play is to be performed with little scenery, no set, and minimal props.

Surroundings of the set are created by furniture, staircases, ladders. As an example, there is a scene between two characters, Emily and George, who are having a conversation from "window to window" and it was performed by the two actors standing atop separate ladders to represent neighboring houses.

The actors mime actions, without the use of props, and mime the objects with which they interact.
