Spring Awakening, the eight-time Tony Award-winning musical, will return to Hennepin Theatre Trust's Orpheum Theatre for a limited engagement of two performances only at 8 p.m, Saturday, Nov. 6 and 6:30 p.m., Sunday Nov. 7, 2010. Based on the 1891 Frank Wedekind play, tickets for this landmark musical go on sale at 11 a.m. on Friday, Sept. 17. Spring Awakening is presented by Hennepin Theatre Trust as a special addition to its 2010/11 Broadway Across America-Minneapolis season.

Spring Awakening features an electrifying score by
Duncan Sheik, book and lyrics by
Steven Sater and original direction and choreography by
Michael Mayer and the award-winning
Bill T. Jones respectively. Broadway direction and choreography will be recreated by
Lucy Skilbeck and
JoAnn M. Hunter. Set against the backdrop of a repressive and provincial late 19th century Germany, Spring Awakening follows a group of young students as they navigate through teenage self-discovery and coming of age anxiety. A powerful celebration of youth and rebellion, the New York Times raves, "Broadway may never be the same." The 2010/11 national tour is produced by
NETworks Presentations. For more information, visit
