SPRING AWAKENING
Book & Lyrics by Steven Sater
Music by Duncan Sheik
Presented by the Hilo Community Players with Stage Direction by Kimo Apaka & Rachel Klein, Music & Vocal Direction by Jace Saplan, and Choreography by Dori Yamada
Winner of eight Tony Awards, Spring Awakening is a groundbreaking rock musical that tells the story of a group of young people struggling to find their voices in a world determined to silence them.
Set in late 19th-century Germany, the story follows teenagers as they navigate first love, sexual awakening, friendship, identity, family expectations, and the pressures of growing up. As curiosity collides with repression and fear, these young people search for truth in a society that refuses to answer their questions.
Heartbreaking, funny, rebellious, and deeply moving, Spring Awakening remains one of the most powerful and relevant musicals of the modern era.
A bold, raw, and deeply human musical about the chaos of growing up, the fear of not being heard, and the desperate need for connection. Set in a reimagined world where past and present collide, this production of Spring Awakening will blend emotional storytelling, intimate performances, and a contemporary folk-rock sound to create something haunting, vulnerable, and alive.
WARNING: This musical contains ADULT THEMES and is intended for MATURE AUDIENCES. Viewer discretion is advised.
⚠️ Accessibility Note: The Keawe Theater requires ascending one large flight of stairs. Those needing special accommodations should contact Hilo Community Players (hilocommunityplayers@gmail.com) at least five days in advance of the event.
