"Charged with urgency, rich in memorable melody and propulsive rhythms that sometimes evolve midsong."- New York Times

The two-time Tony Award-winning hit musical “Green Day's American Idiot" boldly goes where the American musical has never gone before. Three friends struggling to find meaning in a post-9/11 world find themselves on drastically different paths. They must choose between duty, family, love, addiction, and brotherhood.

Winner 2011 Tony Awards Best Scenic Design and Best Lighting Design, Based on the 2005 Grammy Winning Album
