Shotgun Theatre presents an innovative interpretation of the Tony award-winning musical Spring Awakening, a show that delves into the confusing and somewhat tumultuous nature of sexual discovery.
Set in 1891 Germany, Spring Awakening illustrates the youthful desperation for an understanding of the adult world, conflicted by a parent’s deception and misguidance to maintain their children’s innocence.
