After a harrowing, but seemingly successful fundraising campaign to save itself from financial collapse, Actor's Express can celebrate bringing the drama back to the stage with it's 24th season opener, "Spring Awakening," directed by Freddie Ashley.

"Glee" star Lea Michelle working half her life to be the the lead in the original Broadway cast? Her "Glee" co-star Jonathan Groff, too?
