A rock musical about courage, pressure, and growing up

Between youthful force and musical precision

The play takes you right into a world where school and family pressure, sexual uncertainty, and the longing for self-determination collide unrestrained. The city and cultural context make the material particularly appealing: Wedekind's drama is one of the defining texts of modernity, the musical premiered Off-Broadway in 2006 and won eight Tony Awards. This mix of literary sharpness and rock sound gives the production a special tension.
