Spring Awakening, the winner of eight Tony Awards including Best Musical in 2007, is the hottest musical sensation on Broadway today. This show features Duncan Sheik, singer-songwriter and composer of the musical, together with the original cast members.
Spring Awakening is a modern rock musical adapted from an 1891 play by Frank Wedekind, a German playwright renowned as one of the original expressionists. Very controversial for its time, it was banned from the stage for over 100 years. In the early 21st century, Spring Awakening came back kicking and screaming, telling stories of love, lust and trust. The New York Post calls it “A jolt of sudden genius – a ground-breaking must-see musical sure to wake up Broadway!”
