Director's Notes: This is Our Youth

7/27/2014

In my research, I watched an interview with the cast of the upcoming Broadway revival of this particular show, and Kieran Culkin, who will be playing Dennis, put it best: “If there is one show I could do for six, seven months, it’s this show.  And I also find it absolutely bananas that a show that’s this good has never been to Broadway.”  That’s about to change, and we get the chance (after some wrangling for the rights) to bring a show this good to Tacoma.

​Jacob actually pitched this script to me last summer, not knowing that I’ve had it on my personal short list for about five years, and after that it was only a matter of time.  I’m so thrilled to take on this play with such an incredible cast, if even for one night, and can’t thank you enough for supporting challenging and engaging theatre like This Is Our Youth.
