<p><b>A raw, darkly funny portrait of adolescence adrift in the shadow of privilege and disillusionment. <p/> Set in a cluttered Upper West Side apartment in 1982, <i>This Is Our Youth follows three young adults--Dennis, Warren, and Jessica--as they stumble through a weekend of stolen money, broken relationships, and existential dread. <p/> With Reagan-era materialism looming in the background, the play captures the confusion, vulnerability, and reckless bravado of youth on the cusp of adulthood. <p/> Kenneth Lonergan's breakout drama is a masterclass in character-driven storytelling, blending sharp dialogue with emotional depth. Originally staged off-Broadway and later revived on Broadway with stars like Mark Ruffalo, the play remains a touchstone for actors and audiences alike--an enduring exploration of identity, intimacy, and the painful process of growing up.
