Passing the Baton – A Special Connection to “Our Town” at DCG

DCG Theater is excited to perform “Our Town” as the 2026 Spring Play. Our Town presents the small town of Grover’s Corners in three acts. Narrated by a stage manager, the play depicts the simple daily lives of the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry, and eventually – in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre – die. Showtimes are available May 1-3. The performance will be held inside the auditorium at DCG High School

There’s a special connection to George Gibbs’s role in our town. In 2026, that role will be played by DCG Senior Gavin Eickelberg. Twenty-eight years ago, that role was played by Scott Blum, a sophomore at Waukee High School. For a preview of Our Town, check out this special interview with Gavin (DCG Class of 2026) and Dr. Scott Blum (DCG CSD Superintendent).
