I’ve got a pair of tickets to give away to Broadway Across America’s touring production of Spring Awakening , the hottest musical about teen sex to hit Portland, well, ever. Set in Germany in the late 1800s, the Tony Award-winning, Duncan Sheik-scored musical follows a group of teenagers struggling to understand human sexuality, with little help from the adults around them. (A cautionary tale about the perils of abstinence-only education, if you will.) In a glowing review of the show’s Broadway debut, the New York Times called it a “straight shot of eroticism.” Sounds like a good time to me!
The tickets are for next Tuesday night, 7:30 pm, and they’re good seats, better than I could afford. Email me by 3 pm Thursday if you want ’em–put “Spring Awakening” in the subject line and I’ll pick a winner at “random.”*
