Green Day's American Idiot
The Lights Event Center, 32nd Avenue West, West Fargo, ND, USA
Johnny, Tunny and Will struggle to find meaning in a post-9/11 world. When the three disgruntled men flee the constraints of their hometown for the thrills of city life, their paths are quickly estranged when Tunny enters the armed forces, Will is called back home to attend to familial responsibilities, and Johnny's attention becomes divided by a seductive love interest and a hazardous new friendship.
An energy-fueled rock opera, American Idiot, features little dialogue and instead relies on the lyrics from Green Day's groundbreaking album, as well as several songs from its follow-up release, 21st Century Breakdown. American Idiot is a high-octane show with strong social messages that serve as a cautionary tale for the 21st century.
Green Day’s American Idiot is intended for mature audiences only and may be inappropriate for audience members under the age of 16 due to adult situations, simulated drug use, and strong language.
