Description

As Billie, Carmel Skinner is excellent at portraying a teenager on the cusp of adulthood. She pouts and moans, has big plans for a psychotherapy career, and yet is curiously rooted to the home they rent. Owen Davis Walker is equally as convincing as her father and similarly conflicted. He cares for his daughter but is jealous too of the life that she could live without him. He’s slightly predatory, but wise too.

Both yourselves and, rarely, yousselves (or youseselves, coordinate with the spelling youse) are found as reflexive forms. Yous, youse is, um, used mostly in such northeastern cities as New York and Boston, but even there it is not used by the majority of speakers. It is used mostly by lower class, less educated, (older) people. Both Rachel and Fudge are also given lines that question the capabilities of their own parents. Rachel says that her mum and dad don’t get on, and she thinks her father is having an affair because he owns two phones; she is also worried when Billie wants her to help her give birth. Meanwhile, Fudge, the cool kid in class, has his own ideas about his extended family—“twenty-six of us on Christmas Day.” They will love Billie, and they will help look after her child. At one point, he says, “If it was a boy I’d wanna call him some hench name like Aslan.” Hilarious. Who I think got it off Piggy Patterson, him with the gastric band that burst at the trampoline park.How are you, nae offence, a whallopper getting a thing like that? Well, I used to open up early for him and do a fry-up, make him a mug of tea. Oh! I know that smell! It's that hoochie-coochie! I'll take one of them wee monkeys, if there's one going! Chase yersel, Isa. Groundbreaking Autistic-Led Production of “A Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time” at A Common Thread Theatre Company in Framingham, MA 21st October 2023 Never get high on your own supply, that's what they say, isn't it? What are we going to do? Smash up the operation. Thank you for inviting me to your production of Yous Two, I am glad that you have finally been able to bring it to the stage after an 18-month delay.The play is a character-led play with four actors set entirely in a bathroom belonging to Jonny and his daughter Billie who he has brought up alone. The four actorsworked well together, and it was clear that they understood their characters and were committed to the story teasing out the social issues within the plot with appropriate moments of humour.This was the director’s first time directing a full-length play and together with the Producer transported us into this moving story of friendships, family ties and teenage angst. They had obviously worked hard with the cast to develop their characters.

Both Rachel and Fudge are also given lines that question the capabilities of their own parents. Rachel says that her mum and dad don’t get on, and she thinks her father is having an affair because he owns two phones; she is also worried when Billie wants her to help her give birth. Meanwhile, Fudge, the cool kid in class, has his own ideas about his extended family — “twenty six of us on Christmas Day”. They will love Billie, and they will help look after her child. At one point, he says, “If it was a boy I’d wanna call him some hench name like Aslan.” Hilarious.In the parts of the U.S. where they don't use "y'all," they use "you guys" instead, as shown on the map above. 5. You Lot Since in French, the s at the end connects with the vowel of the next word to form a z kind of sound in both cases. If the next word does not start with a vowel, then the sound is simply vou/ vu which sounds more like "you". What? Can I go to the toilet? Away, you wee fanny! Boabby? I don't need the toilet! Where do you keep the scampi fries? Oh, in that box above the chest freezer, Mark. Fifteen-year-old Billie has lived with her dad in their little flat for as long as she can remember, but all that's about to change. She's got big plans – get Dad a job, sort out her grades, and live in a house with five bathrooms.

In some dialects, youse is the plural form of you, but in others it can be used as either singuar or plural. The actors were well supported by the stage manager and tech team who ensured a smooth running performance. Nice to MITEM you: the 10th edition of the Madách International Theatre Meeting Opens in the Hungarian Capital 27th September 2023 The show hastens, too speedily, through a final act, leaving you burning for just a few more minutes with these characters. All in all, though, this is a measured and well-oiled writing debut from Christou. Yous Two is the 50th show in the Downstairs space at the Hampstead since its new writing initiative started in 2010, and, if this piece is a sign of what's to come, then I'm already excited for the next 50. The book Labrador Days Tales of the Sea Toilers (1919) uses it to represent "Newfoundland and Labrador dialect", according to the transcriber. Here is an example where youse is clearly singular:Plur.) Représente un groupe de personnes dont le locuteur est exclu. « Soldats, je suis content de vous » (Bonaparte)
