"There’s a lot that I liked about being a kid... No stress about taxes or death."
Born from an autobiographical spark, Drew Gasparini’s jaw-droppingly gorgeous music comes to life in this brand new theatrical song cycle.
Told through five unique voices across age, gender, and generation, We Aren't Kids Anymore explores the complexities of navigating the world at large with a blend of wit, joy, rage, and vulnerability. How do you balance responsibility while chasing a dream? How do you escape rock bottom? And how do you work out what the hell you’re doing with your life? It reminds us that growing up isn’t about getting it right, it’s about daring to try, again and again (and again).
Featuring stunning performances and Gasparini's signature lyrical blend of wit and vulnerability, this This Little Big Theatre Co production is a must-see celebration of being alive.
