Spring Awakening

Browning Center | Eccles Black Box Theatre Spring Awakening is a bold, electrifying musical that blends a gripping coming-of-age story with a powerful contemporary alt-rock score. In a world that silences curiosity and punishes vulnerability, a group of young people fight to be heard as they navigate the tensions of adolescence, desire and denial, shame and authenticity. Urgent, exhilarating, and deeply human, Spring Awakening asks what we owe the next generation, and whether we will light their way forward, or leave them searching in the dark. Spring Awakening is Recommend for audiences 17+ due to Adult Language, Sexual Content, and Mature Themes.
