American Idiot
Book and Lyrics by BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG
Book by MICHAEL MAYER
Music by GREEN DAY
An energy-fuelled rock musical based on the Grammy Award-winning album
4-14 MAY 2022
Sedos presents Green Day’s American Idiot, the Tony Award-winning show based on their album of the same name. This high-octane spectacle is jam-packed with songs everyone will know including Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Wake Me Up When September Ends, Jesus of Suburbia and of course, American Idiot.
American Idiot tells the story of three disgruntled young men struggling to find meaning after the events of 9/11. When they flee the constraints of their hometown for the thrills of city life, their paths quickly diverge when Tunny enters the army, Will is called back home to his family, and Johnny falls in love.
An energy-fuelled rock musical, American Idiot uses Billie Joe Armstrong’s powerful lyrics to shine new light on the early part of the 21st Century and holds a mirror up to an America desperately trying to stay relevant as the world moves on.
This show includes offensive language and depictions of suicide and drug use. Haze, smoke, strobe lighting and loud noises may be used.
American Idiot plays at the Bridewell Theatre from 4-14 May 2022.
This amateur production is presented by arrangement with MUSIC THEATRE INTERNATIONAL (Europe).
