Fresh off the release of his album, Michael Cera is moving right on to another project. This time, he’ll be taking his talents to Broadway.
The play he’s starring in is called This Is Our Youth, and it also features Kieran Culkin and Tavi Gevinson (Rookie founder/editor-in-chief). Original music will be provided by Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij, and opening night is September 11 at Cort Theater.
The story, according to Broadway.com:
Set in New York in 1982, This Is Our Youth follows forty-eight hours in the lives of three very lost young souls: Warren, a dejected nineteen year old who has just stolen $15,000 from his abusive, tycoon father; Dennis, his charismatic drug-dealing friend who helps Warren put the stolen money to good use; and, Jessica, the anxiously insightful young woman who Warren yearns for.
