Fueled by the explosive energy of Green Day’s Grammy Award–winning album, American Idiot is a high-octane rock musical that follows three friends as they navigate the disillusionment and confusion of post-9/11 America. With an electrifying score and raw, urgent storytelling, the show captures the voice of a generation searching for meaning in a media-saturated, war-torn world. Visually striking and emotionally charged, this production fuses live music, movement, and multimedia in a unique theatrical experience that will shake you to your core.

Strong language, drug references, and adult themes. Recommended for ages 14 and up.
