Our Town

Musical version of Thornton Wilder's 1938 stage play (the most performed American stage play),depicts life in a rural New Hampshire village, with its humor and pathos. Songs written especially for this television production included both ""The Impatient Years"" and ""Love and Marriage;"" this is believed to be the only entertainment program in which Paul Newman sings (in this case, a duet with Eva Marie Saint).
