Winner of eight 2007 Tony Awards, Spring Awakening is set against the backdrop of a repressive and provincial late 19th century Germany and tells the timeless story of teenage self-discovery and budding sexuality as seen through the eyes of three teenagers. Based on the infamous 1891 Frank Wedekind play, this groundbreaking musical features an electrifying score by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater who also wrote the book, direction by Michael Mayer and choreography by the award-winning Bill T. Jones. Haunting and provocative, Spring Awakening celebrates the unforgettable journey into adulthood with a power, a poignancy and a passion you will never forget.
