How do you review a piece of your own history? That’s the question I went into the premiere of American Idiot in Toronto with. The original album was one of the catalyzing pieces of my history, that pushed me towards the music I now listen to today. How could I review the musical version, without seeing it through the lens of my own history? It’s a hard question to answer, but I was tasked with the assignment none the less so I took it.
