New York City
Spring Awakening
David Henry Hwang Theatre at the Union Center for the Arts, Los Angeles
The revolutionary Tony Award-winning best musical that took the world by storm. In 1891 Germany, repressed, adolescent students stumble into adulthood as clumsily as they do into each other’s arms. With obstinate parents unwilling to guide them, young Melchior and Wendla explore their desires for each other, while Melchior’s dear friend Moritz fumbles dangerously through his own coming-of-age. This generation-defining musical is a rock anthem to all the “guilty ones,” poignantly exploring the dark, passionate, and twisting journey from adolescence to adulthood. Book and lyrics by Steven Sater. Music by Duncan Sheik.
