Book, Music, & Lyrics by Jonathan Larson

Tick, Tick...Boom, is the captivating musical masterpiece by the late, great Jonathan Larson (RENT). Set in the bustling streets of New York City, this electrifying production ignites the stage with raw emotion and unyielding passion.

It's a celebration of the human spirit, a battle cry for anyone who has ever dared to chase their dreams, and a heartfelt tribute to Larson's own artistic journey.

Don't miss this explosive theatrical event, where dreams and desperation collide in the city that never sleeps.
