This is a really interesting, haunting and sad story. Very sexual so you would be best without kids.Felt disappointed though when front row went on sale for $25 and I spent more to be up in the balcony!

It WAS very graphic with nudity, foul language and simulated masturbation. BUT it was also very well done and the music was great, the actors were engaging, and the story compelling!

The music was great. The vigor of the dancing was also impressive. Would prefer a little more fresh air circulating up in the balcony.

This story has been told before. I kept saying to myself, "So what?" Good acting but nothing new to think about.

Music was great, as well as singing.
Thought the play was over-rated.
Glad I went though

I really enjoy the music of Spring Awakening but thought this cast was underwhelming. They all had good, pretty voices, but I would have liked more power and character. Sometimes it was hard to hear the singers over the rock instrumentation. Only the really boisterous group numbers like "Totally F***ed" packed the kind of punch I'd expect from this musical. Otherwise the show was well put-together, and as I said, it's good music. Certainly worth it at half price.

Little bit amateur, but worth seeing.

The musical was well performed and the music spectacular. I loved the style of it and the young actors were truly talented. I only wish I'd been closer to be able to see their faces as well as some of the detail of the show.

This is the second time I have seen the show. I thought the music was great, and the acting didn't seem to be as great as the first time I saw it. Personally, I love the show because of the lighting design. It is so incredible and steals the show. It is a great rock musical and does have some great humor to offset the serious issues of the show.

The show was well done, definitely pushed the sexuality envelope and I noticed that the younger crowd seemed to enjoy it more than the older crowd. The actors were excellent, some of the songs were great and I would recommend the show. Especially with Goldstar's prices.
