Buy American Idiot Tickets

See the hit rock musical with American Idiot tickets. American Idiot is a musical written by Billie Joe Armstrong, the lead singer of the punk band Green Day. It is loosely based on the group’s 2004 album with the same title. The production won two Tony Awards, with the Broadway soundtrack winning Best Musical Show Album at the 2011 Grammy Awards.

American Idiot centers around the friendship between the three teenagers Johnny, Will and Tunny. The boys find their suburban upbringing dissatisfying and in their search for meaning move to the big city in hopes of leading exciting lives. Unfortunately, however, their quest is doomed for failure. Their friendship breaks apart as Will starts a family with his girlfriend, Tunny joins the military and Johnny becomes addicted to drugs. The musical has been widely praised for the way in which it explores the pitfalls of both suburbia and youthful naivete.

The idea for the musical began when theatre director Michael Mayer fell in love with Green Day’s American Idiot album and approached the band members about adapting it for Broadway. Grab American Idiot tickets for your chance to see this award-winning punk musical live.

Mayer came up with a distinct vision in which the play has no dialogue and is told entirely through song. Though the musical at first struggled to find an audience, the musical authenticity of the production eventually won the day. It would not be long before American Idiot broke through its ceiling to win both Tony and Grammy Awards for its music.
