The Abbey Theater of Dublin will present two pre-professional productions; "American Idiot," from the seven-time Grammy-nominated band Green Day, and "Alice by Heart," from the Tony and Grammy award-winning creators of 'Spring Awakening' and 'Waitress'.

Performances for "American Idiot" take place Aug. 8, 10, 11, 14, 16 & 17 at 7 p.m.; Performances for "Alice by Heart" takes place Aug. 9 & 15, at 7 p.m. Aug. 10-11 & 17 at 2 p.m.

Tickets for each production are $20 and are available for purchase at DublinOhioUSA.gov/abbey-theater/upcoming-shows/. Exclusive to these productions, patrons can see both shows on the same day for $10 off.

In "American Idiot," Green Day's powerhouse album is brought to life in this electric-rock musical of youthful disillusion. Johnny, Tunny and Will struggle to find meaning in a post-9/11 world. When the three disgruntled men flee the constraints of their hometown for the thrills of city life, their paths are quickly estranged. An energy-fueled rock opera, "American Idiot" features little dialogue and instead relies on the lyrics from Green Day's groundbreaking album to execute the storyline.

In "Alice by Heart," Alice Spencer's budding teen life is turned upside down in the rubble of the London Blitz of World War II, and she and her dear friend Alfred are forced to take shelter in an underground tube station. When the ailing Alfred is quarantined, Alice encourages him to escape with her into their cherished book and journey down the rabbit hole to Wonderland.

"The Abbey Theater of Dublin is excited to expand our award-winning pre-professional program this summer." says the Abbey Theater of Dublin's Supervisor Joe Bishara. "Between the edgy, rock ballads of 'American Idiot' and the heartbreaking escapism of 'Alice by Heart,' our students will share the full scope of their talent with audiences while growing as collaborators and storytellers."
