Well its based on the 1891 play by Frank Wedekind which was so scandalous that they banned it from production for 100 years considerin the musical started forming in 1991. The play centers around a small village where the adults raise their youth in the shadow of the bible and ignorance to everything that they deem "innappropriate" especially the growth of their bodies, awakening sexuality and confusion when they are not attracted to the "normal" partner. It displays the turmoil and angst of growing up as well as the strength to face it all. I give it like ten stars in my book.
