‘
Why did you do this play?”
Michael Cera ‘ ‘Love the script’
Emily Barclay – ‘Love the script’
Kieran Culkin – ‘What they said.’
Sometimes you think film actors aren’t real actors. Theatre is a serious testing ground. These are REAL actors – giving powerful, brilliant and gripping performances.
Michael Cera said he loved the chance to perform on the stage where there are no cuts, breaks, 5 minute slots, but serious, consistent acting.
I have a new found respect for both Keiren Culkin and Michael Cera.
Emily Barclay is different as her acting is grounded in theatre.
Their performances ‘knocked my socks off’ – I was wearing joggers too!
Their raw exposure of youth searching for identity in New York was real, powerful and permeated by a deep sadness of loss and being lost. It is a world of disconnect with drugs, broken relationships, desperately grasping for love and purpose. In the tradition of ‘Catcher in the Rye’, it is timeless.
As a young adult writer, I feel connected to ‘This is Our Youth’. All young adult writers should see this play by award winning playwright Kenneth Lonergan.
The season is short, unexpected with 15 performances between 14-25 March. See it if you have a chance at the Drama Theatre Sydney Opera House.
Don’t miss out!
Zombieland was so much fun. I loved that scene where he was trying to be "bad"!
I loved Adventureland where Jesse played the same type of guy -dorky and awkward. I'll have to see this!
And as for my type, I don't really have one, or I don't know what it is yet!
I'm not really sure if I have a type. Everyone I've ever liked for the most part has been different. I like dorky and adorable tough, that's cute. I guess I just want someone who's respectful and who listens, someone who has a good sense of humor and is patient with me haha. I'm really laid back so I don't want someone who's super high maintenance and of course you want to have things in common. I guess I'll know when I meet him. ;)
Zombieland was a fun movie. I also like the movie Shaun of the Dead
Lenore, I loved that scene too!
Ella Press, I still need to see Adventureland.
Michelle, those are some great qualities!
Billie, I liked those two movies, too.
Thanks for commenting!
I like the type of guy, humorous, kind, sweet, Smart, protective, responsible..cute :)
i found that in my DH !
I want to marry my best friend. I want him to be someone who treats me with respect and who I want to become more like. And I want him to call me out when I'm off-base- to help me improve. I want us to have fun together, to be able to talk for hours, or to just "be" together.
I like guys who are sporty and smart..lol
