Entering our second season, Crusader Productions will perform This Is Our Youth, and Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead. This Is Our Youth chronicles two days in the lives of three young adults in the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Products of the age of political and cultural liberalism, Dennis, Warren, and Jessica find themselves out of place in 1982, the beginning of the conservati
ve Reagan Era. Blunt, hysterical, and heart-breaking, the play explores the brief moment between teenage years and adulthood, when we must bridge what we learned in our youth with the harsh realism of adult life. Come explore all of our youths with us on July 7th and 8th at 7:30 P.M. A parody of the classic comic strip, Peanuts, Dog Sees God follows eight of the classic peanuts characters, as teenagers. However, the innocence and simplicity of their childhood has eroded with their maturity. Now, the common plagues of young adulthood, such as teenage violence, homophobia, lack of identity, and others characterize the classic peanuts gang. And with the recent death of CB's beloved dog, the gang explores the meaning of life, the possibility of the afterlife, and whether dogs can make it to heaven. Please join us on July 14th and 15th at 7:30 P.M. for the dark, hysterical, and genuinely innocent revisit to the old Peanuts gang. Both productions will take place at The Play Group Theatre, located at ! N Broadway #111, White Plains, NY 10601. Tickets are $15 and can be bought at the door or reserved by calling (914) 483-8328. You can also email [email protected] to reserve tickets, ask any questions, and donate to the productions.
