Green Day's American Idiot is undoubtedly one of the season's most ambitious projects. The concept: take one of the most successful rock albums of this generation and turn it into a Broadway musical - without adding a stitch (or nearly) of dialogue. The experiment, so far, has been a success, managing to win over theater minds largely unfamiliar with the rock/grunge genre, as well as music fans who, prior to it's opening, had never stepped foot in a Broadway house.
As BroadwayWorld speculated earlier this week (courtesy of BroadwayGirlNYC), Green Day made a surprise appearance at the performance of AMERICAN IDIOT on April 22.
