Pay What You Can Night is July 14! Then the show runs through Aug. 21: Thurs-Sat at 8 p.m. and Sun at 2, with 8 p.m. Wed shows on Aug. 3, 10 and 17.
This Tony Award-winning rock extravaganza tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their unbridled dreams and the safety of suburbia, on a quest for true meaning in a post-9/11 world that leads them on the most exhilarating theatrical journey of their lives. Based on Green Day’s Grammy Award-winning multi-platinum album, and featuring Boulevard of Broken Dreams, 21 Guns, Wake Me Up When September Ends, and the blockbuster title track, Green Day’s American Idiot boldly takes the American musical and City Lights where they’ve never gone before.
