Set to one of the most loved scores of the 21st century, Spring Awakening tells a story of adolescent anarchy. A group of teenagers – silenced and controlled by a censorious society – discover a new world of feeling and freedom outside the classroom, with beautiful and devastating consequences.

Almeida Theatre’s artistic director Rupert Goold directs the production which stars Nathan Armarkwei-Laryea, Asha Banks, Taylor Bradshaw, Catherine Cusack, Carly-Sophia Davies, Kit Esuruoso, Laurie Kynaston, Mark Lockyer, Bella Maclean, Amara Okereke, Emily Ooi, Joe Pitts, Maia Tamrakar, Stuart Thompson, Zheng Xi Yong, Thomas Grant and Mali O’Donnell.

The production features choreography by Lynne Page, design by Miriam Buether, costumes by Nicky Gillibrand, lighting design by Jack Knowles, sound design by Tony Gayle, orchestrations by Duncan Sheik and Simon Hale, musical direction by Jo Cichonska and casting by Pippa Ailion CDG and Natalie Gallacher CDG.

Spring Awakening, with music by Duncan Sheik and lyrics and book by Steven Sater, first made its world premiere off-Broadway in 2006.

Based on the German play of the same name by Frank Wedekind, the original West End production in 2009 won four Olivier Awards including Best New Musical.
