When 19 year old stoner Warren is kicked out of home and steals money from his ‘not a criminal, just in business with criminals’ father, he sets off a wild 24 hours of schemes, dreams, awkward romance and crashing headfirst into the real world. Funny, painful and compassionate, Kenneth Lonergan’s This Is Our Youth is a contemporary classic about coming of age in uncertain times, brought to life in Melbourne’s iconic fortyfivedownstairs venue! Directed by Maeve Hook (Never Closer), starring Amir Antoine (Cleopatra and Antony), Lachlan Herring (Punk Rock) and Emily O’Brien (Mojo).

As an unfunded CBD located venue, our expenses continue to rise. If fortyfivedownstairs is to survive, we are obliged to increase our revenue without inflicting costs on already struggling artists. Without support, we risk losing artists or having to close our doors. We do hope for your understanding!
