Spring Awakening National Tour Comes to Houston - 4/1/2008


Producers Ira Pittelman, Tom Hulce, Jeffrey Richards and Jerry Frankel are proud to announce that Spring Awakening, the 8-time Tony Award® winning and Grammy Award-winning Broadway musical will launch a multi-city national tour beginning in the Curran Theatre in San Francisco. Houston (January 6-18, 2009) is one of the stops Spring Awakening will make on its journey across the country.

Cities in the first year of the tour include San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Toronto, Seattle, Portland, Houston, Cleveland, Tempe, Louisville, East Lansing, Tampa. Other cities to be announced.

Spring Awakening swept the 2007 Tony Awards® winning eight out of its eleven nominations, including Best Musical, Best Score (Duncan Sheik & Steven Sater), Best Director (Michael Mayer), Best Book (Steven Sater), Best Choreography (Bill T. Jones), Best Orchestrations (Duncan Sheik), Best Lighting Design (Kevin Adams), Best Featured Actor (John Gallagher Jr.).

Hailed as the "Best Musical of the Year" by the NY Drama Critics Circle, the Drama Desk, the Outer Critics Circle and the Tony Awards®, Spring Awakening emerged as the most talked about musical on Broadway.

"Broadway may never be the same. This brave new musical, haunting and electrifying by turns, restores the mystery and the thrill to that shattering transformation that stirs in all of our souls."
--Charles Isherwood, The New York Times

"A miracle that must be seen to be believed … The best new musical in a generation."
--John Heilpern, The New York Observer

Based on the infamous 1891 Frank Wedekind play, Spring Awakening features an electrifying score by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater, direction by Michael Mayer, choreography by award-winning Bill T. Jones and Book by Mr. Sater.

Set against the backdrop of a repressive and provincial late 19th century Germany, Spring Awakening tells the timeless story of teenage self-discovery and budding sexuality as seen through the eyes of three teenagers. Haunting and provocative, Spring Awakening celebrates the unforgettable journey into adulthood with a power, a poignancy and a passion you will never forget.

Mature Themes: Sexual Situations and Strong Language.
