About the Show
Tick Tick…Boom! is the autobiographical rock musical written by the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning author of Rent, Jonathan Larson. Anxiously narrowing in on his 30th birthday, Jon is forced to confront the possibility that he will never achieve his dream of being a composer. Adding to his mounting frustration and confusion are Susan, his girlfriend who longs for a life of stability outside the city and Michael, his best friend that seemingly has it all. This compelling story of personal discovery, sacrifice and the ideal of holding onto your dreams is filled with instantly appealing melodies and honest human emotion.
