Green Day goes Broadway for <cite>American Idiot</cite>, by Elysa Gardner

With their punk-informed hairdos and garb, the members of Green Day look slightly out of place in Sardi's, a landmark theater-district restaurant frequented by stage folks and matinee crowds. But Billie Joe Armstrong, Tré Cool and Mike Dirnt are Broadway babies themselves these days. The new musical American Idiot, an adaptation of the rock band's multiplatinum 2004 album, opens Tuesday at the St. James Theatre. And the guys are clearly, in Armstrong's words, "stoked" as they chat with director Michael Mayer.

Green Day Say <cite>American Idiot</cite> Musical Is 'In Your Face', by James Montgomery

The stage version of Idiot doesn't officially open until Tuesday at the St. James Theatre, but the band—and director Michael Mayer—have been tinkering with it in rehearsals since last month. And with an A-list cast of actors, a bombastic soundtrack (which features songs from Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown and a couple of Green Day B-sides) and a book that doesn't shy away from the political or the personal, it's already looking like an explosive show—the kind of thing that very well may turn Broadway on its ear.
