This is Our Youth

By Kenneth Lonergan. Directed by Rene Moreno. A co-production between Upstart Productions and Project X.

This play is a lacerating look at three young Manhattanites of the early 1980s living a doped-out Bohemian lifestyle. Dennis -- with a famous painter for a father and a social activist mother -- is a small-time drug dealer and a full-time slacker. His hero-worshipping, maladjusted friend Warren has just impulsively swiped $15,000 from his father, an abusive lingerie tycoon who is "not a criminal, just in business with criminals." When Jessica, an ambitious fashion school girl, shows up for a date, Warren pulls out a wad of bills and whisks her away (awkwardly) for a night of New York seduction. How will Warren turn out? Will he continue to follow Dennis in his debauchery, or will he discover a way out? Remarkable in its understanding of contemporary urban youth, This Is Our Youth is a living snapshot of the moment between adolescence and adulthood when many young people first go out into the world on their own.

Tickets to the Opening Night performance are pay-what-you-can. Purchase tickets online or by calling 877-238-5596.
