Young Americans

Written by Lauren Yee
Directed by Nadia Guevara

April 9-26, 2026

Joe and Jenny, a young immigrant couple, embark on a cross-country drive to their new home, bonding over roadside landmarks, motels, and surprisingly memorable stops at IHOP. Two decades later, Joe retraces that same journey with their 19-year-old daughter, Lucy. As these parallel road trips unfold—separated by twenty years—a vivid portrait of a family, their past, and the lengths we go for the people we love begins to unfold. “This wonderful little dramedy feels as wide open as the road from East to West Coast." - BroadwayWorld

1st Stage believes everyone should have access to exceptional theatre.
