It’s curtains for Spring Awakening
Producers of Spring Awakening, the Tony-award winning musical about angsty German teenagers in the 19th century, announced Thursday that the show will be closing in just a few short months. The final performance is scheduled for Jan. 18, 2009
In case you’re skeptical, here are just a few reasons you should make a trip to the city and check out Spring Awakening before it closes:
- The music was written by Duncan Sheik. Yes, “Barely Breathing.” THAT Duncan Sheik.
- The lead role is currently being played by Weeds‘ Hunter Parrish (see photo). I’m not sure if he’s going to be in it until the end, but he should. He’s just the coolest.
- Uh… the entire cast sings songs with titles like “My Junk” and “Totally F*cked” while wearing long socks and suspenders and other silly olden-timey clothes. How are you not sold yet?!
