TICK TICK BOOM and More Slated for PRiMA Theatre's 2017 Season

PRiMA Theatre is announcing its 2017 season of productions.

Tick Tick Boom is the autobiographical musical by the Pulitzer Prize and Tony award-winning composer Jonathan Larson (the creator of Rent), is the story of the sacrifices he made to achieve his big break. This compelling story of personal discovery is filled with instantly appealing melodies in a memorable pop-rock score. Just before Hamilton took flight, its creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, was one of the most recent performer to star in a NYC production of Tick Tick Boom. The production attracts innovative thinkers. Join PRiMA for this endearing and thoughtful piece about following your dreams amidst the whirlwind of life. The production will play in March 2017 within the black box theater at the Trust Performing Arts Center.
