Tick, Tick, Boom!

Before the revolutionary rock musical "Rent," Jonathan Larson had another story to tell...his own. Made into a movie for Netflix, "tick, tick...BOOM!" is a three-chapter pop rock musical about facing crossroads in life and holding onto 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 (tick); his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue (tick); and he's still waiting tables and trying to write the great American musical before time, and life, passes him by (BOOM!).
