This Is Our Youth

Dig Deep Theatre and Theatre Extempore are teaming up to bring Academy Award winner Kenneth Lonergan's breakthrough coming-of-age dramedy “This Is Our Youth” to The Olive Branch in Valencia for nine performances across two weekends, opening May 8, 2026. Set against a hardscrabble New York City down on its luck in the early 1980s,”This Is Our Youth” chronicles a pivotal 24 hours in the lives of three young adults on the Upper West Side. With the characters emerging into adulthood in the era of Ronald Reagan, the play is an insightful snapshot of both the moment between adolescence and maturity, and a particular era in America.
