Musical about Making a Musical

Tick, Tick... Boom!

His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city, his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue, and Jon is still waiting tables and trying to write the great American musical.

Tick, Tick… Boom!, the autobiographical musical by Jonathan Larson, the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning composer of Rent, is the story of a composer and the sacrifices that he made to achieve his big break in theatre.

Containing fourteen 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.
