Description
Based on Frank Wedekind’s 1891 teen tragedy, Spring Awakening represents a vital leap forward for the American musical. The young, gifted cast is directed with palpable sympathy by Michael Mayer. But what really sets it apart is the brooding, pulsating rock score by Duncan Sheik with imagistic lyrics by Steven Sater: It’s like nothing that has ever been heard on a Broadway stage. Note: Weeds star Hunter Parrish has joined the cast for a limited run as bad boy Melchior.—AF
