Two and a half years after the premiere at off-Broadway's Atlantic Theatre and winning the Tony Award for Best Musical (along with 7 other Tony Awards), SPRING AWAKENING proudly celebrated its 750th performance on Thursday, October 16, 2008. Led by Hunter Parrish as Melchior, Alexandra Socha as Wendla and Gerard Canonico as Moritz, the "next generation" of Spring Awakening – has been chosen from across the country; from Texas to New Hampshire, Washington to Georgia and all points in between. With ages that range from mid-late teens through early twenties, the new group is similarly in age to the original cast when they began the journey at the Atlantic.
Ten members of the new company make their debut with
Spring Awakening. They join veteran actors
Christine Estabrook and
Glenn Fleshler (who play all the adult characters) and 19-year-old
Gerard Canonico (Moritz) who made his Broadway debut in "Les Miserables".
Spring Awakening features the music of
Duncan Sheik and book and lyrics by
Steven Sater. Choreography is by
Bill T. Jones and it is directed by
Michael Mayer. It is the recipient of 8 2007 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and the Grammy Award.
Spring Awakening's current performance schedule is as follows: Tuesday & Sunday at 7 pm, Wednesday-Saturday at 8 pm, Matinees on Saturday and Sunday at 2pm. For information and tickets, call Telecharge.com at 212 239-6200. The musical is playing at the
Eugene O'Neill Theatre, 230 West 49th Street.
