Spring Awakening Concert Movie With Original Cast Gets Release Date
HBO announces a release date for a feature documentary version of the Broadway hit Spring Awakening. Dynamic duo Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater first birthed the coming-of-age rock show onto the great white way in 2006. Based on Frank Wedekind's 1891 German play of the same name, Spring Awakening the musical showcases adolescent's inner and outer struggle to fit into societal norms. The original production earned massive acclaim, including eight Tony Awards, four Drama Desk Awards and even a Grammy. It also launched the careers of now-pop culture mainstays like Jonathan Groff, Lea Michele, Skylar Astin and more.
