Spring Awakening
Book and Lyrics by Steven Sater
Music by Duncan Sheik
Based on the play by Frank Wedekind
Directed by Andrew Schwartz
In a world where adults set the rules, silence dissent, and control the story, a group of young people struggles to articulate their feelings and chart their own course. Winner of 8 Tony Awards, including best musical, Sater & Sheikâs Spring Awakening harnesses the power of pop/rock music to give voice to the angst and anxieties, along with the hopes and desires, of coming of age and entering adulthood.
