Tick, Tick…Boom!

Before Rent, the musical that defined a generation, there was Tick, Tick... Boom!

From the mind of Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner Jonathan Larson comes the story of Jon, a young composer on the eve of his 30th birthday. Stuck waiting tables and struggling to write the next great American musical, Jon can feel the time to make his mark on the world slipping away. As the people he loves move on to new careers and new places, Jon is faced with a choice: find security or follow his destiny. With Larson’s trademark style of pop-rock score blended with traditional musical theatre, this exuberant and charming tale will speak to anyone who's ever gotten lost on their way to finding their dreams.
