DESCRIPTION:
Slinging razor guitars, thundering drums, and an anti-hero named Johnny. The music of Green Day and the lyrics of Billie Joe Armstrong captured the zeitgeist of a generation with its Grammy Award®–winning multi-platinum album. American Idiot puts those raw emotions front and center in a highly theatrical and thoroughly satisfying rock opera that burns up the stage.

Directed by Center Theatre Group (CTG) artistic director Snehal Desai and produced in collaboration with Deaf West Theatre, this groundbreaking new production features an ensemble of both Deaf and hearing actors and is performed simultaneously in American Sign Language and spoken English. Through powerful performances and immersive staging, the show explores themes of identity and rebellion while amplifying the voices of Deaf and multi-cultural communities. Join us for a bold and reimagined take on a modern-day classic like you’ve never seen—or heard—before.
