News Spring Awakening Offers Teen Night on Broadway The critically acclaimed Broadway revival of Duncan Sheik and Steven Sater's Spring Awakening offers a special Buy One/Get One Free "Teen Night" Jan. 19 at 7 PM at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre.

Look Back at Deaf West Theatre's Spring Awakening on Broadway

The musical's producers said in an earlier statement, "The last performance of Spring Awakening’s limited run is on Jan. 24, and so we aren't able to participate in Kids Night on Broadway [Feb. 9]. Because the show deals with sexuality, adult themes, and the communication between teens and adults, we think it is important that as many young people and their parents as possible see the show, so we're having our own Teen Night on Broadway. And in addition to the reduced price for teens and their parents, we're offering a post-show conversation that we hope will help inspire more family communication about growing up in 2016."

This production of Spring Awakening, which originated at the Deaf West Theatre, is performed simultaneously in American Sign Language and spoken and sung in English.

Based on Frank Wedekind’s controversial 1891 expressionist play of the same name, Spring Awakening, according to press notes, "follows the lives of a group of adolescents as they navigate their journey from adolescence to adulthood in a fusion of morality, sexuality and rock & roll." Michael Arden directs with choreography by Spencer Liff.

The musical plays the Brooks Atkinson Theatre (256 West 47th Street).
