After much too long, Spring Awakening - the eight-time Tony Award-winning musical about teen angst and sexual awakening in late-19th century Germany - finally made its Nashville debut Friday, February 25, settling into Tennessee Performing Arts Center's Andrew Jackson Hall for a five-performance run. And though the show was a long time in coming to Music City, the audience watched raptly as the fresh-faced cast of talented young actors brought the story to life with vigor and total commitment.
The play Spring Awakening by Frank Wedekind, which was written in Germany in the late 19th century was censored for a time due to its portrayal of masturbation, abortion, homosexuality, rape, child abuse and suicide. Treating the rocky sexual coming of age of a group of teenagers, its helter-skelter but life-affirming journey is explored in the 2006 Tony Award winning musical of the same name Spring Awakening through folk based and alternative rock, and boasts some expertly staged storytelling, singing, choreography and exuberant performances at the Pantages for one week only.
It's been just a little more than a year since a touring production of SPRING AWAKENING has graced a theater filled with screaming fans here in Southern California. While the touring cast list has certainly changed, many of the same brilliant elements that made this 2007 Tony winner for Best Musical such a rabid, cult hit--especially among younger theatergoers--remain firmly entrenched into this groundbreaking show. Stealthily leaner yet swifter than its previous incarnations, this 2nd National Tour of SPRING AWAKENING, produced by NETworks Presentations, LLC, continues its brief, week-long stop at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood through February 13.
The second national tour of Tony award-winning musical SPRING AWAKENING has just kicked off, and photos from the production are posted below! Based on the 1891 Frank Wedekind play, the landmark musical is a stirring combination of sexuality, morality and rock & roll that is captivating audiences across the nation like no other musical in years. SPRING AWAKENING features an award-winning and evocative story with a score by Duncan Sheik, book and lyrics by Steven Sater, and original direction and choreography by Michael Mayer and Bill T. Jones, respectively.
