A few months ago Marty & I had the chance to see Avenue Qat the Aronoff and ever since we’ve been talking about seeing another play or musical. Well you can bet I was excited a few weeks ago when I saw that Spring Awakening was coming to Cincinnati. The highly talked about musical is coming to the Aronoff Jan 12-24th and tickets start as low as $22.50!
.
Spring Awakening is the groundbreaking fusion of morality, sexuality and rock & roll about three teens coming of age in provincial and oppressive 1890′s Germany.
Winner of eight Tony Awards including Best Musical with a Grammy-winning score by Duncan Sheik, Spring Awakening celebrates the unforgettable journey from youth to adulthood with a power, a poignancy and a passion you will never forget.
I bring this up because representatives with the musical recently contacted me to see if I’d be interested in giving away a pair of tickets through my blog. That’s right, I have a pair of premium tickets to giveaway! One lucky winner will get to see Spring Awakening with their BFF or loved one, courtesy of Mommy Bits.
Note from SA Representatives: While the show is as much a celebration of youth, with rocking anthems that bring down the house, it also deals honestly with serious issues including teen pregnancy, suicide, masturbation, homosexuality and abuse. It has tasteful partial nudity, strong language, and sexual situations and is not intended for young children. That said, the show has engendered communication between parents and their teens. Click on the 1st video below to see what parents are saying about the show and click the 2nd video to see Spring Awakening on The View, back in 2007:

My mom always said that she’d raise another child in a heartbeat… if someone else took them between 13 and 16!
Just tweeted the following:

Best advice- Take care of your friends.
My mom’s best advice was to save myself for my husband.
The best advice my mother gave me as a teen was that no matter how much I felt things were important in my teenage years, once I was an adult, those things would only be a small memory and not really matter at all (i.e. a party, a pimple, a rude boy, etc.).
Added you to my blogroll ( why weren’t you there already? Sorry about that ) under my Family category.
Just followed your blog on Facebook.

my mom always told me that the so-called “popular’ kids would not necessarily be the most successful or happiest people in the long run. Didn’t believe her at the time.

Thanks!
My 17 yr old daughter and i would LOVE tickets to the Spring Awakening. Please enter me in the contest!! Thank You!!!
Best advice has to be not to go to bed angry. Doesnt matter if its with my husband or someone else. Let it go before bed or you might wake up with the same feelings in the morning.

Best advice my mom gave me when I was a teen: “I should have raised hogs”

Best advice my mom ever gave me. Hmmm. My mom gave me a few choice cooking tips, but I would say, by in large, my mom taught me to be polite to everyone – sometimes to the point of inconvenience. Having been on the recieving end of rude behavior, I am so grateful my mom taught me the finer points of courtesy and manners. Please, thank you and thank you notes – what a simple (but wonderful) thing!

Psyched for this show!
The best advice my mom ever gave me was that your reputation is all you have that really matters in the world. Money, position, fame don’t really do much without a good rep. Methinks she’s a pretty smart lady.
My stepson got a ticket to this show for Christmas. He also saw it last year. So I tweeted your giveaway in hopes of seeing the show myself!

the best advice my dad (actually) gave me was “life isn’t fair”
I saw Spring Awakinging when it came to Columbus. It’s an amazing show and if at all possible try to get on stage seats! I sat on stage and while you miss some things, like the characters singing to the front of the house, you get so much more in return, actually seeing the actors up close and if you’re lucky, they sing and dance right to you in the on stage seating.

Spring Awakening came to Denver last month and we did a giveaway for it. I was bummed to miss it because of the busy holiday season. It sounds wonderful!
SPRING AWAKENING is an awesome show! I saw it in New York a couple of summers ago and loved it! I wish I could enter the contest, but I’m busy on opening night. Good luck to everyone else!
