A critical smash on Broadway and in London, the two-time Tony Award winning hit musical AMERICAN IDIOT tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia. Their quest for true meaning in a post 9/11 world leads them on the most exhilarating theatrical journey of the season. Based on Green Day’s GRAMMY Award-winning multi-platinum album, AMERICAN IDIOT boldly takes the American musical where it’s never gone before. Featuring the hits “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “21 Guns,” “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” and the blockbuster title track.

The cast of 22 local performers includes Bill Adams, Erica Blasko, Arielle Boutin, Saige Bryan, Marcelo Calderon, Joe Cardozo, Josh Cardozo, Chris Cenatiempo, Marques Christopher, Greg Gardner, Bobby Henry, Jesse Hunter, Mark Joy, Mike Katz, Emma LaPlace, Michael Lepore, Lynette Marshall, Jessica Rahrig, Everton Ricketts, Olivia Rivera, Emily Seibert, and Renee Sutherland

The production will feature Direction by Lance Gray, Musical Direction by Eli Newsom, Choreography by Emily Frangipane, Costume Design by Jessica Camarero, Lighting Design by Phill Hill, and Sound Design by Chris Gensur. Sarah Iannarone serves as resident Production Stage Manager for DCT Main Stage Theatre.
