​Becca Johnson-Spinos
Vertical Divider
The original play that inspired the hit musical Spring Awakening. A timeless tale of infatuations of youth and tragic consequences brought on by the misunderstandings and provincial attitudes of the older generation toward the realities of sex and love in the world of the young. Banned following its premiere, this incendiary play still exerts a vivid theatrical power.

Reviews
“
That a theater company would produce such a heady, demanding 19th-century play deserves respect. That it would do such an outstanding job, and with such young actors, demands high praise.”
-Frank Garrett,
TheaterJones 
“Becca Johnson-Spinos direction overall was exceptional. It was genuinely impressive to observe how she was able to bring out from this cast of youthful performers these raw, truthful performances.”
-John Garcia, 
John Garcia's The Column 
“Rock the Cosmos. This feverish, focused, kinetic cast combines director Becca Johnson-Spinos’ melancholy choreography, woundedness and blind rage to reveal the pervasive stain of humanity.” “Theatre at its best. ”
-Christopher Stephen Soden, 
Sharp Critic
