Synopsis

A time to learn.

A time to rebel.

A time to love.

A time to burn.

A group of teenagers - silenced and controlled by a censorious society - discovers a new world of feeling and freedom, with beautiful and devastating consequences.

Inspired by German playwright Frank Wedekind’s once-banned and groundbreaking play from 1891, Spring Awakeningtells a story of adolescent anarchy, set to one of the best-loved musical scores of the twenty-first century. It opened in New York City in 2006, and London in 2009, and won eight Tony Awards and four Olivier Awards, including both prizes for Best New Musical.

This new edition of the complete book and lyrics – the first to be published in the UK – features exclusive bonus material by writers Steven Sater and Duncan Sheik, and members of the original Broadway and West End casts: Aneurin Barnard, Jonathan Groff, Evelyn Hoskins, Lea Michele and Iwan Rheon. It was published alongside the first London revival at the Almeida Theatre in 2021, directed by Rupert Goold.

'Once in a generation, if we’re lucky, an unexpected new musical comes along and changes everything. That is the thrilling achievement of Spring Awakening’ New York Observer
