AMERICAN IDIOT will make its debut at The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts in Worcester, MA, tonight, February 1-3, 2013.

Nominated for three Tony Awards, AMERICAN IDIOT is the story of three boyhood friends, each searching for meaning in a post 9-11 world. Through incredible spectacle, thrilling performances and with the hope embodied by a new generation, AMERICAN IDIOT has given Broadway audiences the time of their lives night after night since the musical began performances at the St. James Theatre in March 2010.
