Harrison Lang, in cooperation with The Egremont Barn, has announced the Berkshires' premiere production of the Broadway smash hit musical, Spring Awakening. BroadwayWorld has a sneak peek at the cast in character below!
Winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Spring Awakening explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood through an illuminating book and poignant lyrics by Steven Sater, and a gorgeous score by Duncan Sheik. Based on the controversial 1891 seminal German play by Frank Wedekind, Spring Awakening is a thrilling blend of morality, sexuality, and rock and roll that has been rousing audiences across the nation for years. In late nineteenth century Germany, the grown-ups hold all the cards and the children are expected to obey. However, once this corrupt society is exposed, a group of students learn how to navigate teenage self-discovery and coming of age anxiety.
This marks the very first production of a musical to be produced in The Egremont Barn. Making up the creative team is Harrison Lang, Director, Caitlin Teeley, Assistant Director, Mike Pacifico and Cindy Gutter, Music Directors, Natalie Sala, Choreographer, and Ava Lindenameier, Creative Design Director. Spring Awakening features an entire cast of Berkshire County talent. Starring is Jackson Teeley as Melchior, Caroline Fairweather as Wendla, Ali Louis Bourzgui as Moritz, Caitlin Teeley Ilse, Joey Labrasca as Hanschen, Diana Quetti as Martha, Connor McNinch as Ernst, John Ververis as Georg, Aiden Chalfonte as Otto, Julia Murphy as Thea, Brianna Nicola as Anna, Gigi Teeley as the Adult Woman, Monk Schane-Lydon as the Adult Man, and Victoria Aldam as the female swing.
