The groundbreaking rock opera that defined a generation takes center stage in this raw and electrifying theatrical experience. Based on Green Day’s Grammy Award-winning album, American Idiot tells the story of three friends searching for meaning in a post-9/11 world, where disillusionment runs deep and rebellion is the only way forward.
With virtually no spoken dialogue, the story unfolds through powerful choreography, visual storytelling, and Green Day’s explosive score—including “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” “Holiday,” “21 Guns,” and the iconic title track.
A visceral portrait of youth in crisis, American Idiot pulses with urgency, heartbreak, and anthemic defiance. It’s a show for anyone who’s ever felt lost, fired up, or ready to break free.
Performed for two weekends only, this high-octane finale to our 36th Season is not for the faint of heart—but unforgettable for those ready to feel something real.
