Anyone know here it would be possible to view a recording of this? Not asking for a bootleg so don't chew my head off. I just didn't know if there was a place that I could go to view one.

Thanks.

Maybe if you search for it under Spring's Awakening. It's a small difference, but I know that some people refer to it that way.

Also try Awakening of Spring.

You can check out The Awakening of Spring. It was made in 2008 and features Victoria Tennant. It's not bad, but not great either. http://www.amazon.com/The-Awakening-Spring-John-Aniston/dp/B0033HKBQA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1358804646&sr=8-1&keywords=awakening+of+spring

I don't know of a recording, but here is a translation of the original play. You can read a preview of it on Google Books.
Spring's Awakening

I've read almost every translation that I can find. I'm located the 2008 film but I really wanna see a live version. It's ok if I don't find one I was just curious.

Thanks everyone for the responses.

Did you read Carl Mueller's translation from about 10 years ago? I think he's a better source than Eric Bentley. (The two were rivals for years and I should admit that I knew Carl quite well, so I am biased.)

I might have missed that translation ... the one i'm best affiliated with is the Hughes translation

Didn't Jonathan Franzen do a translation? I think his was the first one I encountered.

Edit: And yes, everyone I know refers to the Wedekind play as Spring's Awakening.
