Green Day’s American Idiot album will be adapted into a theatrical performance, to be presented by a 19-member company in California. The project was co-written by Tony-award winner Michael Mayer and Green Day frontman, Billie Joe Armstrong. "When I first heard American Idiot, I was struck by its innate theatricality," Mayer said in a statement. "Here was a new musical drama begging to be staged. Who would have thought that one of the most brutally honest, eloquent, passionate, funny and poetic theatrical responses to the post 9-11 world would be a Green Day record?" The production will feature songs from American Idiot as well as their upcoming album, 21st Century Breakdown. The show is expected to run from September 4 – October 11 at the Berkeley Repertory Theatre.
