Alecky Blythe’s engrossing verbatim play tells the stories of a generation. Created from five years of interviews with twelve young people from across the UK, Our Generation is a captivating portrait of their teenage years as they journey into adulthood.
Often too extraordinary to be fiction, this funny and moving play is for anyone who is – or has ever been – a teenager.
It was co-produced by the National Theatre, London, and Chichester Festival Theatre in 2022, directed by Daniel Evans.
