Winner of 8 TONY Awards including Best Musical, Spring Awakening graphically celebrates the unforgettable journey from youth to adulthood with a power, honesty, poignancy and sexual passion you will never forget. Based on the legendary 1891 play, banned from production for over 70 years, this stunning musical provides a rich challenge to our extravagantly talented grads from the last few OK seasons. This production will explore the trial, fears and exhilaration of the teen years with courageous professionalism. (2 hours 15 minutes, Rated R.)

Spring Awakening reviews:
“Once in a generation a new musical comes along that changes everything.” New York Observer 

“HAUNTING AND ELECTRIFYING! This brave new musical has a shivery sensual allure unmatched by anything in the theatre right now.” – Charles Isherwood, The New York Times
“Winner of eight 2007 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Spring Awakening is an electrifying fusion of morality, rebellion, sexuality and rock ‘n’ roll. The story is a mirror of its time -- then and now. An eclectic juxtaposition of elements from late 19th century drama crashing with a radical 21st century pop-punk spirit. Young people explore the journey from adolescence to adulthood and through raw, contemporary rock music find expression and a release of their repressed, anguished cries.” 

“The tension between these elements suggests how much advancement in terms of the education and awareness of sexuality, suicide, and violence has occurred between the late 19th century and a post-Columbine world.” 

“A cross-generational landmark musical celebrating the vibrancy and confusion days of youth with poignancy and passion has become a phenomenon that has defined a generation.”
