SPRING AWAKENING tells the story of adolescent anarchy, set to one of the most loved scores of the 21st century. A group of teenagers – silenced and controlled by a censorious society – discover a new world of feeling and freedom outside the classroom, with beautiful and devastating consequences.

This anniversary concert raised funds in the memory of Imogen Kinchin, one of the original producers of SPRING AWAKENING in 2009. Imogen sadly died on 27 March 2024 following her diagnosis of Stage IV Bowel Cancer in March 2022. Proceeds from the evening’s concert will be donated to support her three children, Arthur, Orson and Audrey.
