Green Day’s American Idiot, inspired by Green Day’s chart-topping 2005 punk rock album, bursts onto the stage with the story of Johnny, ‘Jesus of Suburbia,’ and his friends, Will and Tunny, as they attempt to break out of their mind-numbing, aimless suburban existence. Their journey embodies the youth’s struggle between passionate rebellion and the search for love, echoing the voice of their era. From ‘Boulevard of Broken Dreams’ to ‘Holiday’ and ‘21 Guns,’ American Idiot brings the soundtrack of a generation to the stage and promises to captivate and energise audiences with early 2000s nostalgia.Content warnings: Flashing lights. Themes of drugs/alcohol/substance abuse, war, mental illness and pregnancy.
