Spring Awakening - Musical, Drama

The winner of 8 2007 Tony Awards - including Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score - Spring Awakening has been called "the best musical of a generation" (NY Observer). Adapted from Frank Wedekind's play of the same name, with an acclaimed score by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater, book by Steven Sater and direction by Tony-winner Michael Mayer, Spring Awakening boldly depicts how a dozen young people make their way through the thrilling, complicated, confusing and mysterious time of their sexual awakening.
