The winner of 8 Tony Awards including Best Musical, SPRING AWAKENING
explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with poignancy and
passion you will never forget.  This landmark musical is an electrifying
fusion of morality, sexuality, and rock & roll that has been exhilarating
audiences across the nation like no other musical in years.  Set in
late-19th century Germany, it concerns teenagers who are discovering the
inner and outer tumult of sexuality. The original play was banned in
Germany for some time due to its frank portrayal of abortion,
homosexuality, rape, child abuse and suicide. In the musical, alternative
rock is employed as part of the folk-infused rock score.

*Please note that all actors will be involved in mature situations.*

WHO:  Strong musical theatre performers aged 18 years old to adult.  (16
or 17-year olds MAY, at the discretion of the director, be considered, if
parents agree to sign a waiver.)
