Seattle's Best - Awaken Grunge with The Bobby Mailers
Hitting up our video archive, we visit the land of Kurt Cobain and other angst ridden artists - including the Bobby Mailers! Who, you ask, are the Bobby Mailers? Well our very our Spring Awakening cast have formed a band and performed at the infamous Experience Music Project (EMP for short).
Also, we would like to give a shout out to YouTube user bloodredink who has put together an amazing tribute video to our wonderful touring cast. Thank you, Bloodredink! It's beautiful! Video is below and can also be found as our "favorite" on our Youtube Totally Trucked Channel. Enjoy!

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How can I send fan mail to the cast?
If you just want to send a quick note to all the cast members telling them you appreciate their work, you can email us here at totallytruckedblog (at) gmail (dot) com. I will be happy to forward your email to the cast, but to preserve their privacy, it is unlikely they will email you back (I will, though).
You can also send individual performers fan mail and care packages care of the theatre at which we are currently performing or will be performing. Go to the theatre's website (listed above), find their mailing address, write the actor's name as well as "Spring Awakening" and send c/o the theatre. Remember, we are often at these theatres for only a week so make sure to allow for delivery times. It's a better bet to send it to the theatre we will be going to next as they can always hold packages for us until we arrive. Letters received late will not be forwarded to our next location.
2. How Can I Audition for Spring Awakening?
From time to time, we have open calls in larger cities across the US. We will post any additional open calls here. Subscribe if you havn't already to keep informed. In the meantime, we've made it easy for you to submit yourself singing a folk/alternative rock song on video. Go to: http://www.springawakening.com/videoauditionsubmission/ Make sure your submission is less than 500 MB and is one of the accepted formats. Your screen should change and you should get a confirmation that says your submission has been received. Trust us, people are called in this way. Lucas Wells was cast because of an online submission!
3. How Do I Score On Stage Seats?
That is really up to the individual theatres. Most of them won't release the seats until just before performances because they want to make sure the house is sold first. Some do so online, although the ticketing systems they have in place often can't accommodate our unique seats onstage. Most of them are available only at the box office (though you can purchase them for a performance in the future). The Guilty Ones Street Team members have the rights to purchase these seats before the general public. Any seats left over will be released to the box office and may also be purchased as part of rush tickets (discounted, day-of tickets).
4. How Do I Join The Guilty Ones?
The National Guilty Ones Street Team is a way for fans of the show in each of our tour stops to help us spread the word. You will get access to parties, meet and greets, and other special events while meeting new friends who share your passion for the show, all while gaining some valuable marketing experience. You must be at least 15 yrs old. Email your contact info to nationalguiltyones (at) gmail (dot) com.
5. Can I Get Discounts?
From time to time, a theatre may offer us discounts to send out to our fans. We will post any here on the blog. Subscribe now!
6. Who runs this site? This site was created for fans to stay connected with our touring cast and follow their adventures around North America. Ideally, it would be in the voice of the cast members. Unfortunately, our cast members are often too tired or busy to post lengthy blog posts on a regular basis. Company members will contribute a post from time to time and every month we will have a compiled blog post that most every company member will participate in. The other stuff like updates, etc, will be posted by me. My name is Pun. I work for the production, love this show, its cast, and our fans, and I'm so very glad you're here!

AAAH. OH MY GOD. HOLD ON, GIVE ME A MINUTE.
...
ajd;ladj. Thank you! Wow! You all are more than welcome, really! I'm thrilled to pieces that everyone likes it. Haha. Seriously, thank you so much! <3 I'm kind of fangirling insanely hard right now, you have no idea. Just... wow. haha.
OMG I SENT CHRISTY A MESSAGE ON MYSPACE WITH A LINK TO THIS VIDEO YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IS THIS THE REASON WHY ITS ON HERE??????
nvm i don't think she has read my message yet. lol.
That was a pretty killer fan video.
For a second I thought the Bobby Mailhers were real.
Haha, I love Lauren. She's incredible. :]
<3
Haha, the experience music thing is awesome, =D
Five days till you guys come to Toronto, can't wait!
Wait...I may be a little slow here...but the Spring Awakening Tour Cast IS the Bobby Mailers?
So you guys are in the Bobby Mailers...band?
Who came up with that name?
In the revolving restaurant, did the penny eventually make it all the way around?
random question...
is there a reason the SA website no longer has any tour dates listed past chicago? a few weeks ago, they had listed up until tucson.
that guitar tornado is pretty sick
I'm glad that you guys really enjoyed Seattle :D
Antonio, no, we got it cuz Lauren forwarded it to us on the TotallyTrucked youtube channel, but thanks for sending it to Christy too! I'm sure she would have gotten it soon.
Lauren, you rock! We're humbled and touched. Thanks again.
Anonymous asks:

We'll still be in Tucson, but we were notified that the venues we had listed beyond Chicago hadn't announced their season yet, and we didn't want to scoop the press pop they normally receive. They'll be back up once the venues announce it.
What a great last video, from Lauren. Seriously, bravo! May I post it on my blog?
Also what program did you use to make it?
Mark, I'm sure Lauren would love it if people posted it on their blog...if would certainly help to spread the wonder of Spring Awakening. We'd love it!
Hopefully Lauren will respond directly to your question.
Mark, thank you! That's really sweet of you to say. :) Pun is right in his assumption, haha. I wouldn't mind in the least. Anything to help spread the SA lovin'. I used the program Sony Vegas 7.0 to edit it. Thanks again!
