A new musical
Innocence rocked!
In a world where grown-ups hold all the cards, three school friends experience the exhilarating, turbulent journey into adulthood…
Spring Awakening is a vibrant and poignant story about a brilliant young student Melchior, his troubled friend Moritz, and Wendla, a beautiful teenage girl - all on a voyage of personal discovery and sexual awakening.
Inspired by Frank Wedekind’s 1891 masterpiece of repressed emotion and adolescent passion, Spring Awakening explodes onto the Lyric stage driven by a thrilling contemporary score. The Lyric has invited the entire original creative team behind the highly acclaimed New York production to stage the London premiere with a new British cast.
