For Via,
Our Town provides a moral dilemma that will test her willingness to act kindly. This continues to situate
Our Town as a coming of age moment for all the characters, as it's clearly going to test Via's maturity and compassion. Via's sadness also alludes to the neglect she feels from her parents, as it suggests that if they were more open with her, they'd possibly understand better what she's going through and be able to help her through it.
