Spring Awakening

Spring Awakening - the Broadway musical based on Frank Wedekind's play - has received 11 Tony nominations. (see article in today's New York Times) Yes, that's the same Frank Wedekind who wrote the Lulu plays. Can a rock musical adaption of Pandora's Box be far behind ?

In a season rich with contenders, “Spring Awakening,” a dark rock musical based on a 19th century German play about sexually anguished teenagers, led the field of Tony Award nominations this morning with 11, including chances at awards for best musical, director and best actor for two of its cast. . . .
