The New Jersey School of Dramatic Arts Encore Theatre production of AMERICAN IDIOT readies for its premiere January 8-10, 2016. The two-time TONY Award-winning hit musical American Idiot, based on Green Day's GRAMMY Award-winning multi-platinum album, boldly takes the American musical where it's never gone before.

The high-octane show includes every song from Green Day's album American Idiot, as well as several songs from follow-up release, 21st Century Breakdown. American Idiot, features little dialogue and instead relies on the lyrics from Green Day's groundbreaking album to execute the story line.

The musical will feature the directing team from the recent NYC's 20th anniversary production of RENT at Harbor Lights Theatre, Alex Perez and Charles Santoro. Alex will Direct and Choreograph and Charles will Musical Direct respectively. "It's imperative that we take time to really explore this great script and score with our company of talented young artists that reflect upon many current events we face on a daily basis" says Perez.

The cast and crew include: Producers Beth Baur and NJSDA, Directed and Choreographed by Alex Perez, Musical Direction by Charles Santoro, Stage Manager - Dawn D'Arrigo, Assistant Director- Carey Gsell, Lighting Design - Nik Marmo, Sound Design - Nick Von Hagel, Set Design - Miguel Urbino and Lilian Sun, ASM/Projections- Roseann Fakhoury, Production Manager- Ted Wrigley
