Oh, I disagree. Spring Awakening is appropriate for a nine year old...if you want to scar her for life!!!!!!!!!! Are you freakin' nuts?!?!??!?
Butters, go buy World of Warcraft, install it on your computer, and join the online sensation before we all murder you.

ATTENTION FANS: I will be played by James Barbour in the upcoming musical, "BroadwayWorld: The Musical."
A bit off topic, but my teen commented after seeing SA how peculiar it was to meet at the stage door people she had seen on stage either nude or having at themselves.
She's gotta learn about sex, masturbation, teen pregnancy, sadomasochism, abortion, and suicide somewhere. Any those swear words aren't gonna teach themselves!
On the other hand, Jonathan Groff's showers of spit might traumatize her for life!
It's just a message board. Let's not take it too seriously.

Would it be ok for a 15 year old besides the nudity what else mature is in the show?

coolkid, all aspects of the show are mature, seriously.
*possible spoilers*
from wendla wanting to know the truth about where babies come from, to serious masterbation and wet dreams and sexual fantasies, to child abuse and underlying molestation, serious school pressures, curiousity about their own bodies, very life-like simulated sex and all that goes with it, nudity, pregnancy and abortion, suicide, hiding the truth about many of these things and clueless adults.. all with R-rated language.
however; it is my firm belief that all these things are done very tastefully and all are necessary to the storyline. nothing is overdone and without need. i think that it is absolutely fine for a 15 year old, in fact i think that teens are the age group that need to see this most, after all, it was written geared towards that particular group. but just be prepared for the show before you walk in. otherwise you may be in for a shocker!

p.s. How do you get off asking questions like these?
