Deception. Manipulation. Fear. Contempt. Envy. Anguish. These are some of the elements that make up Paul Downs Colaizzo’s brilliant new play “Really Really” at Signature Theatre. It’s a work that looks closely at the lives of the “Me Generation,” providing shock, awe and laughter, no matter what your age.

“Really Really” is set in an elite college a day after a major party at the apartment of a popular student, Davis (Jake Odmark), who claims in a hungover stupor that the night before is a blank. His roommate, Cooper (Evan Casey), remembers Davis being alone in his room with one of the girls at the party, Leigh (Bethany Anne Lind), who just happens to be the girlfriend of their good friend Jimmy (Danny Gavigan).
