As you are sitting
in the theatre waiting for the play to begin, you start to notice the amazing
set design. The four actors appear and the crisp, witty, dialog begins. The
scenes change with amazing graphics, titles and music. The characters and plot
develop, moving from a typical millennial conversation which is cliched,
passionate and filled with humorous truths (look it up, each time there is an
argument of who is right) to serious problems requiring serious introspection.
With a backdrop of liberalism, we are taken through nuanced intricacies of
relationships, values, and life-changing decisions. ACTUALLY, WE’RE
F**KED helps us realize the limits of ideology and idealism once it is
put to the test of reality. It is contemporary and yet universal in the way the
actors parse love, life and how to live one’s life authentically. You may even
want to see it again, once you get past the plot twist, just to hear the
fabulous lines that are delivered so wonderfully.
