Tick, tick... BOOM! is Larson’s semi-autobiographical story of Jon, an aspiring composer anxiously approaching his 30th birthday. Jon’s girlfriend wants to get married and leave New York for a more conventional life, his best friend is earning a fortune on Madison Avenue, and Jon is still waiting on tables while trying to create the great American musical. An inspiring story of a struggling artist who chooses to follow his dreams, tick, tick... BOOM! features a dynamic pop-rock score blended with traditional musical theater styles, in what many believe to be Larson’s homage to Stephen Sondheim.

by Michael L. Quintos - Jan 28, 2010


In Theatre Out's latest production (which plays through February 20 at the Empire Theater in Santa Ana), TICK...TICK...BOOM!, Larson's pre-Rent, briefly workshopped musical is an interesting theater piece that's really more of an archival discovery from the vault of a brilliant musician rather than a staging of his definitive masterwork. An overall commendable production of Larson's autobiographical musical, the show features an excellent, impressive performance by actor Ian Michael Stewart playing the lead role of Jon.
