• City Theater Co. of Wilmington is opening its mainstage season on Dec. 13 with the alt-rock musical Spring Awakening. The musical has a pop-rock score by Duncan Sheik and a book and lyrics by Steven Sater. It brings all the angst, romance, tragedy, and poetry of adolescence to our audiences. The musical is based on a play by Frank Wedekind that was suppressed from being performed until 1906 for its condemnation of sexual and social taboos disguised as righteous correctness. A group of teenagers in a Victorian-era town wrestle with their “awakening” on all things related to love and sex under the eyes of their watchful and neglectful parents and teachers. Go here for show dates and tickets.
