About the Show

Before RENT there was TICK,TICK…BOOM! This autobiographical musical by Jonathan Larson, the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning composer of RENT, is the story of a composer and the sacrifices he makes to achieve his big break in theatre. Containing 14 songs, ten characters, three actors and a band, TICK,TICK…BOOM! takes you on the playwright/composer's journey that led to a Broadway blockbuster. His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city, his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue and, yet, Jon is still waiting on tables and trying to write the great American musical. This compelling story of personal discovery is presented as a rock musical filled with instantly appealing melodies and a unique blend of musical theatre styles. Everyone will love this youthful, endearing, and thoughtful piece, and will surely embrace the universal ideal of holding onto your dreams through life's most difficult challenges.

Winner Outer Critics Circle Award for “Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical”

“Filled to the brim with humor and one liners dealing with musical theater, acting, performing, writing, love, friendships, and life. -TalkinBroadway.com
