As you all hopefully already know, the musical Spring Awakening is coming to Durham in just a couple weeks, and I, for one, am really excited to see it. I saw it on Broadway a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. I wasn't sure that I would like it since the story takes place in the late 1800s in Germany and so I didn't think I would be able to relate to any of the characters. But it turned out to speak to issues that are still relevant and controversial today, plus the rock music that accompanies it is very modern--definitely not what I was expecting for a musical based on a play that has been around for over a hundred years. I ended up becoming briefly obsessed with it, rocking out to the music and even attempting to recreate some of the choreography. So of course, I'm planning on seeing it again at DPAC on March 3rd, and would highly recommend that the rest of you do the same.
Don't forget, tickets are $10 and they go on sale tomorrow at 10 AM at the Hub! Hopefully I'll see you there (I'll be the one behind the cash register).
