Spring Awakening

Spring Awakening
by Frank Wedekind
directed by Anthony Luciano
February 1-4, 8-11
Mandell Weiss Theatre

The knowledgeable heartthrob Melchior tries his best to explain sex to his doleful friend Moritz, but he seems more concerned about failing out of school than girls. However, beautiful Wendla learns more about the birds and the bees from Melchior than she may have bargained for as the play tumults towards its shocking end. Just as electrifying and erotic today as it was at its opening in 1906, Wedekind's classic example of German expressionism explores the passion and confusion, the potency and destruction of adolescents coming of age in a time when pubescent urges were just not discussed.

Reserved seats will be assigned at the will-call window when you pick up your tickets.

Tickets may still be AVAILABLE for purchase through our box office for performances that are sold out or that have ended online. Please call 858-534-4574, Monday-Friday, noon-6pm.

F.A.Q.

Question :	Hi, is this the straight play or the musical version? :) Thanks!
Réponse :	This is a contemporary translation of the original straight play. This is not recent musical version.

Question :	Is this play appropriate for teenagers, 15 & 16?
Réponse :	Ultimately up to individual parents, this play does have sexual overtones. The teens in the play discuss sex, there is an attempted rape, and there is a suicide. All of this is suggested onstage. However, this is not any more graphic than today's films. You will need to use your individual judgment.

Question :	Are tickets still available for tonights performance? Box office line has been busy for a couple hours...
Réponse :	Yes! So sorry - our phone lines have not been working well today. There are many seats available 1 hr before (and up to) performance time at the box office.
