Brighton Beach Memoirs

The main theme of this drama was coming of age. There comes a time in an adolescent’s life when they start to figure things out and question every little detail. In this play a young boy named Eugene started to question his older brother Stan about life and wanted to know everything. Of course being the youngest of the family, it can be challenging to get information especially with extended family living with you temporarily. Eugene’s persistence on getting information about life from Stan was a success at the end of the first act. I am however, the youngest of my family, and from experience it’s not easy to get all the answers you want about life when living with two older siblings and parents who are worried about finances and college. The only answers I got was either yes, no, or may be. Now that my older siblings got their own life I am now somewhat an only child. Talking to my parents has never been easier. I don’t have to wait for them I can just go up to them and share my thoughts and get opinions on life.
