Spring Awakening takes
a brusque and non-apologetic approach to the trials and tribulations of emerging adulthood. The characters in the show experience many moments of crisis related to sex and violence, struggling with physical abuse, emerging sexuality, suicide, sexual intercourse,
homosexuality, and references to rape, abortion and parental abuse. These experiences, even theatricalized, pose hard questions for audiences, many of which have no ready answer. Spring
Awakening uses the platform of musical theater to explore these questions and the show
pulls no punches in the way it portrays events. It brings to light the responsibilities we share, regardless of age, in regards to sexuality, self-respect, and what it means to truly love ourselves
and others.
