Spring Awakening

OnStage Atlanta
2969 East Ponce de Leon Ave Decatur, GA 30033

Spring Awakening took Broadway by storm when it debuted, winning eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Punctuated by an electrifying and hauntingly beautiful rock score co-written by pop mastermind Duncan Sheik, this bold and touching drama captures the timeless and turbulent experience of transitioning from youth to adulthood, as a group of teenagers navigate the confusing and often troubled waters of adolescence and their budding sexuality. Based on Frank Wedekind's expressionist play that caused controversy in 1891 Germany, the show's sharply drawn characters grapple with issues like teen suicide, pregnancy and identity - tough topics that remain as relevant as ever - in this production of Spring Awakening at OnStage Atlanta in Scottdale.
