- Spring Awakening will get an off-Broadway revival this fall, with Ashlyn Maddox, Tyler Jordan Wesley, Ryo Kamibayashi, and Amalia Yoo announced as the cast
- Maddox is credited with a prior role in "Parade," per the announcement
- The musical — described in the announcement as an "angsty coming-of-age" work — is written by Steven Sater and Duncan Sheik
- The production is positioned off-Broadway rather than on a Main Stem house, the announcement confirms
Why it matters: Casting four young leads in a fall off-Broadway revival of "Spring Awakening" signals producers are betting on emerging talent over established names, with Maddox's "Parade" credit the most recognizable resume line among the newly announced quartet.
