The classic musical after all is a "happy-go lucky" entertainment, as described by actress Hope Quinn.
Despite its peppy sounding title, "Spring Awakening" is anything but.
So many musicals revolve around boy meets girl. "Spring Awakening" addresses how dreadfully wrong those encounters can go.
The Tony Award-winning musical opens Thursday in the Donnell Theatre at Bowling Green State University's Wolfe Center for the Arts for a four-day run.
