BWW Review: SPRING AWAKENING at Runway Theatre
by Kyle Christopher West - May 22, 2016
In 2007, Dunken Sheik and Steven Sater's rock musical SPRING AWAKENING took home eight of the eleven Tony Awards it was nominated for, including the coveted Best Musical award. It was bold, new, edgy - and it caught the hearts and minds of everyone who saw it.
