The Whitewater High School (WHS) Players will be presenting Thornton Wilder’s (who was born in Madison, Wisconsin) American classic, “Our Town,” Feb. 29 – Mar. 2 at 7 p.m. and Mar. 3 at 2 p.m. in the newly named James M. Stewart Auditorium located at 534 S. Elizabeth Street.

General admission tickets are $10 for adults and $7 for students.  Tickets can be purchased at the door or by calling the box office at 262-472-8178.

In the true spirit of “Our Town,” the WHS Players has partnered with the Whitewater Historical Society to present “Streets of Whitewater.”  A detailed collection of historic photographs, rarely-seen artifacts, and stories of the early days of Whitewater will be on display before each performance.

The Whitewater Unified School District (WUSD) invites the community to the dedication of the high school’s auditorium to honor WUSD school board member James (Jim) M. Stewart on Saturday, March 2, at 5:30 p.m., before the performance.
