Broadway was rocked like it had never been rocked before when Green Day's American Idiot took the world by storm six years ago. Based on the band's Grammy-winning concept album of the same name, this high-energy, two-time Tony-winning rock opera uses the songs from the album, plus several from its follow-up release, 21st Century Breakdown, to drive the story. Three lifelong friends -- Johnny, Will and Tunny -- must navigate the aimless drift of suburbia in a post-9/11 world. But fear, war and drugs soon prove easier choices than freedom, which leads to the erosion of their friendship and dreams. With a crazed rock pulse, this Patio Playhouse production of American Idiot comes to the Kit Carson Park Amphitheater in Escondido.
