An immersive musical

Book, music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson

Tick, tick... BOOM!

2 – 4 August 2024

Tick, tick… BOOM! follows the story of Jon, an ambitious New York musical theatre composer just one week shy of his 30th birthday. As he strives to create the next big Broadway hit, Jon is obsessed by a persistent ticking in his head, but is it a ticking clock or a ticking time bomb? Faced with time pressure and personal dilemmas, the composer navigates between his artistic aspirations, friendship and love. Without realizing it, Jon is about to write the future Broadway hit Rent, which will play for 12 years without interruption. The story, infused with Jonathan Larson's brilliant score, offers a captivating plunge into the aspirations and questionings of a young genius seeking to make his mark on the entertainment world.

This immersive production, featuring a live orchestra, will bring Jon's story to life from the inside, immersing you in his emotions, his music and his dreams!
