by Thornton Wilder
Starring Ned Beatty, Barbara Bel Geddes, Robby Benson, Ronny Cox, Glynnis O'Connor, Sada Thompson
and Hal Holbrook as The Stage Manager

A distinguished American television production of Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning classic about 12 years of life at the turn of the century in a fictitious New Hampshire town, Grover's Corners. This deceptively simple play centres on the two families of the Gibbs and the Webbs as they experience birth and death, love and marriage, youth and middle age. These threads are woven into a moving affirmation of life by the Stage Manager, beautifully played by Hal Holbrook.

Produced and directed by GEORGE SCHAEFER
