WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
The Tony Award-winning musical Spring Awakening will launch a multi-city national tour beginning at the Curran Theatre in San Francisco on September 4.
Based on the 1891 Frank Wedekind play, and set against the backdrop of a repressive and provincial late 19th century Germany, Spring Awakening tells the timeless story of teenage self-discovery and budding sexuality as seen through the eyes of three teenagers.
The winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Spring Awakening features music by Duncan Sheik, book and lyrics by Steven Sater, direction by Michael Mayer, and choreography by Bill T. Jones.

At times, the Curran Theatre doesn't seem nearly big enough to hold the national tour of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Spring Awakening. And the issue isn't stage dimensions; rather it has to do with the explosive, enthusiastic cast whose cumulative personality can feel restrained by an otherwise generous stage. Indeed, hardly anyone would be surprised if they simply bounced off the stage, spilled into the audience, and walked out onto the sidewalk to finish this heart-racing performance.
