Spring Awakening has been a major outlet for me lately. If I’m having an off day, I’ll blast Don’t Do Sadness, or Totally Fucked, and just rock out until I’m feeling better. The songs are so beautiful, and I can easily spend hours listening to them on repeat. I’m going to see the show for the first time live at the beginning of May, and I really couldn’t be more excited. I’m so incredibly grateful for the cast, and all that they do. They seem like an extraordinary group of people who genuinely love what they’re doing, and they have so much respect from me for that. I’ve heard it said multiple times that the cast that you see live is the cast that you connect the most with, and I’m honored that this is going to be my cast, so to speak. I adore each and every one of them, and even if given the choice between seeing the original cast, and the second national tour group, I’m certain these are the people I’d want to see.
