From acclaimed director and playwright Toshiki Okada, Artistic Director of the internationally-lauded chelfitsch Theatre Company, comes a chronicle of post-college ennui and 21st<\/sup> Century relationships in Japan\u2019s Lost Decade Generation.\u00a0 The static lives of several self-obsessed GenX internet caf\u00e9 clerks are thrown out of balance by the presence of a younger female co-worker, who rightly makes them question the meaning of their lives in a shifting socio-economic landscape.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile these overeducated and underemployed members of the nation\u2019s lost generation keep saying, \u201cyou know,\u201d none of them do. Bittersweet drama\u2026distinguished by a style that turns inarticulateness into the sort of poetry that rewards close listening.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0~\u00a0The New York Times<\/i><\/p>\n
