Some elements of this story will be told through modern dance and movement rather than literal staging. 

We will have a professional intimacy choreographer to facilitate any moments of close touch. We will not be casting adults and minors in close relationships. We will also be holding a parent/student info session before auditions, which we will send details for to everyone who registers for these auditions.

The winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, told by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater through what Entertainment Weekly called, "the most gorgeous Broadway score this decade," Spring Awakening explores the journey from adolescence to adulthood with a poignancy and passion that is illuminating and unforgettable.
