Music by Duncan Sheik

Book & Lyrics by

Steven Sater

Listen to what’s in the heart of a child…Winner of eight Tony Awards and four Olivier Awards, Spring Awakening is the contemporary musical adaptation of one of literature’s most controversial and frequently banned plays.

Against a backdrop of energetic pop-rock music, we discover a group of adolescents in the midst of the thrilling and mysterious time of their sexual discovery.

In a world where children are told what to do and who to be, Melchior Gabor is fighting back. Challenging status quo, he writes an explicit manual for his best friend – neurotic Moritz Stiefel – unveiling beautiful and forbidden secrets about the opposite sex. Meanwhile, the inquisitive Wendla Bergman is plagued with questions. Where do babies come from? Why won’t her mother tell her the truth? What do children do which is so wrong they deserve a beating?

One fateful night Melchior and Wendla set in motion a course of events that will leave their friends and elders shocked and changed forever.

No matter your age, you have known these characters. Join them as they bare their souls to you through rock-fuelled anthems and heart-wrenching ballads. Join them as they fight for truth and awake to a world both awesome and tragic.
