Notre Jeunesse Play at The Sunflower Theatre

From May 8 to May 10, 2013
8:30pm -> 10:00pm

Join The Sunflower Theatre as it hosts performances of the play “Notre Jeunesse” by Nathalie Garraud.

Synopsis: The story of the play takes place during summer, in the suburbs of a big city. In the middle of it, a young man, wants to go somewhere but without knowing where to go. When he dreams at night, it’s all too realistic. He’s 17 years old. He lives with his mother who always tries to be “hip”. He has no father.

And there’s a girl, who works in a call center, where she spends her days lying about her name and her job title to please the people who talk to her. She’s 19 years old. She lives with her mother. She has no father. It’s July 14, the commemoration day of a dead revolution, with multicolored rockets and military parades. The streets are filled with young people who never bore arms and who are trying to run away one way or another. There’s a firework, a ball, a love story that blooms, the death of a young girl who was pregnant, and the beginnings of a revolution.
