This article sheds a lot of light on the energy this production as a whole has. This past summer, I was lucky enough to get to work for the producers of This Is Our Youth and experience the energy of the cast and production team first hand. The connection that the three actors in this production have with one another is truly something special, and it makes the play all the more spectacular. There is a very clear chemistry between the actors both on and off stage, and I think this article showcases this sentiment very well. I think this production in particular is interesting because the topic and themes of the play have truly impacted the attitudes and energy of the entire team- both cast and crew. The This Is Our Youth team has truly jumped into the youthful theme of the play, and their cohesiveness shines through every moment of the play. If you find yourself in New York, definitely go see This Is Our Youth. I have very rarely seen a play on Broadway that is so relevant to youth today.
