Who wrote the play Our Town?

Thornton Wilder
William Shakespeare
Eugene O'Neill
Tennessee Williams

The correct answer is: Thornton Wilder

Our Town was written by Thornton Wilder. The other options, William Shakespeare, Eugene O'Neill, and Tennessee Williams, did not write Our Town. William Shakespeare wrote many plays, but Our Town is not one of them. Both Eugene O'Neill and Tennessee Williams were well-known playwrights, but Thornton Wilder was the author of Our Town.
