The winner of 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, told by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater through what Entertainment Weekly called, “the most gorgeous Broadway score this decade [2000’s],” Spring Awakening explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with a poignancy and passion that is illuminating and unforgettable. The landmark musical is an electrifying fusion of morality, sexuality, and rock and roll that has exhilarated audiences across the nation like no other musical in years. 

It is Germany, 1891, a world where the grown-ups hold all the cards. The beautiful young Wendla wonders aloud where babies come from… until Mama tells her to shut it and put on a proper dress. Elsewhere, the brilliant and fearless young Melchior interrupts a mind-numbing Latin drill to defend his buddy, Moritz – a boy so traumatized by puberty that he can’t concentrate on anything… not that the Headmaster cares. As Melchior and Wendla eventually fumble their way into one another’s arms, Moritz flounders and soon fails out of school. They and their friends navigate teenage self-discovery and coming-of-age anxiety in a powerful celebration of youth and rebellion in the daring, remarkable Spring Awakening. 

CONTENT NOTE:   Please be aware that Spring Awakening contains strong language, depictions of sexual situations, and portrayals of trauma such as suicidal ideations. 18 years of age or older advised.
