tick tick ... BOOM!: The Complete Book and Lyrics

Before the revolutionary rock musical ÊRentÊ Jonathan Larson had another story to tell... his own. Êtick tick ... BOOM!Ê is a three-chapter pop rock musical about facing crossroads in life and holding on to your dreams that was first produced off Broadway in 2001.

It tells the story of young Jonathan a promising young composer on the eve of his 30th birthday.

His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of the city (ÊtickÊ); his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue (ÊtickÊ); and he's still waiting tables and trying to write the great American musical before time and life passes him by (ÊBOOM!Ê).
