The Art House with Jopuka Productions presents A Critical Stages Touring productionCreated by the Good RoomWhy do you have to go to work? How come adults drink to have fun? Is 50 too old to learn to surf? What was life like before the Internet?Step inside a theatre-turned-playground-turned-battleground transformed by Generation Up Next for a riotous theatrical experience full of questions asked by young people, and answered by adults.Watch as age collides with experience in a joyous and revealing one-hour tell-all, where adults take a backseat as a powerful group of 9 to 13-year-olds from your town drop some truths… and the mic.Combining anonymous submissions with high-impact video design, I’ve Been Meaning to Ask You pits Age against Experience in a conversation built around three key starting points: what you’ve been told, what you know to be true, and what you want to believe.Winner of the 2021 Sydney Theatre Award for Best Production for Young People.Originally commissioned by Brisbane Festival and produced in association with QUT Creative Industries at La Boite Theatre in 2018.
