Spring Awakening

Book and Lyrics by Steven Sater | Music by Duncan Sheik

Based on the Original Play by Frank Wedekind

Licensed exclusively by Music Theatre International (Australasia).


Featuring VCA Music Theatre and Design and Production Students

Spring Awakening is an unforgettable journey through the mysteries and challenges of adolescence. The landmark musical by Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater takes us to late-nineteenth century conservative Germany, where a group of teenagers navigate curious desire and self-discovery with beautiful and devastating consequences. An electrifying fusion of morality, sexuality and rock 'n' roll, Spring Awakening is compelling and timeless in its celebration of youthful rebellion.
