Who wants to be an American Idiot?

In 2006, Green Day’s American Idiot, an epic concept album in the vein of The Who's Tommy, lit up the charts and re-invigorated pop-punk music. The album was so successful that it spawned this Broadway production, now on tour and coming to the Stranahan. American Idiot follows the musical odyssey of three disaffected suburban youth whose lives are torn between apathy, passion and, of course, rock and roll. The Tony Award-winning play features an onstage band and all the music from the American Idiot album, as well as a few surprise cuts.

Sunday, March 2, 3pm, 7:30pm. $28-68. Stranahan Theater. 4645 Heatherdowns Blvd. 419-381-8851. stranahantheater.org
