Winner of 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Spring Awakening celebrates the unforgettable journey from youth to adulthood with power, poignancy, and passion. Adapted from Frank Wedekind’s 1891 expressionist play about the trials, tears, and exhilaration of the teen years, the themes explored are as relevant today as they were back then, particularly when considering the skew that social media and the online world impact upon youth development and navigation of the world’s pressures.
