A musical look at the courage it takes to follow your dreams, tick, tick... Boom! is Jonathan Larson's autobiographical tale of a young composer on the brink of turning 30 and falling into oblivion. His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city (Tick), his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue (Tick), yet Jon is still waiting on tables and trying to write the great American musical (Boom!). Containing fourteen songs, three actors, ten chorus members and a band, tick, tick...Boom! takes you on the playwright composer's journey that led to the Broadway blockbuster, Rent. Set in 1990, this musical is filled with instantly appealing melodies, and a unique blend of pop and musical theatre styles. Everyone will love this youthful, endearing, and thoughtful piece, and will surely embrace the universal ideal of holding onto your dreams through life's most difficult challenges. This musical has mature language and situations. It is intended for audiences that are in their late teens or adults.
Advance tickets will be on sale at Humphrey Floral and Gift for $8. Tickets will be $10 at the play.
