‘You Got Older,’ Together With Its Frail and Forthright Family, Returns to New York

A script for the new off-Broadway production of Clare Barron’s “You Got Older” includes an author’s note dated “circa 2016,” meaning roughly a year after the play received an Obie Award. Ms. Barron informs us that her characters engage in “a lot of avoidance…Thoughts are half-processed, and there’s a desire to talk about something ‘meaningful’ more than there is a knowledge of what to say.”
