The current stars of Broadway's Spring Awakening - Blake Bashoff and Kyle Riabko - will head the cast of the national tour of that Tony Award-winning musical, which begins a pre-tour engagement in San Diego Aug. 15.

In December 2007, Bashoff replaced Tony Award-winning actor John Gallagher Jr. in the role of Moritz. He will reprise his performance as the ill-fated character for the national tour of Spring Awakening opposite Canadian musician Kyle Riabko as Melchior. Riabko made his Broadway debut in May when he succeeded Jonathan Groff as the musical's freethinking catalyst, Melchior.

"I have been performing and touring as a musician since I was 10 years old. The fact that I now get to tour America as Melchior in Spring Awakening is an incredible dream come true," Riabko said in a statement.

"I am excited to bring this role to cities across America," added Bashoff. "Moritz is a complex character but very relatable. I think audiences of every age will understand and recognize him and be moved by the story."

Riabko, whose solo recording "Before I Speak" is currently available on the Columbia Records label, has toured with musicians including Jason Mraz, Maroon 5 and John Mayer.

Bashoff was recently seen on ABC's "Lost" in a recurring role, and has also appeared on the television series "Judging Amy," "Numb3rs," "Without a Trace" and "One Tree Hill." His film credits include "Bushwhacked," "Big Bully," HBO's "A Child Betrayed: The Calvin Mire Story" and "The New Swiss Family Robinson." Bashoff will be seen in the upcoming feature "Together Again for the First Time."

Replacements for Bashoff and Riabko in the Broadway company of Spring Awakening have not been announced. Complete casting for the national tour of Spring Awakening is expected shortly.

Spring Awakening will play a pre-tour engagement at San Diego's Balboa Theatre Aug. 15-31 prior to moving to San Francisco's Curran Theatre Sept. 4-Oct. 12, for the official tour launch.

I'm SO pumped for the tour to come here. Even though he's total jailbait (or is he 21 yet? muwahahahaha), I just think he's adorable. Even if he is the worlds biggest spaz.

he actually turns 21 in september. so he's close.
