“Tick, Tick… Boom!” is a rock musical written by the late New York performer and composer Jonathan Larson, making its off-Broadway debut in 2001. The musical takes place in SoHo, New York City during January of 1990; the week leading up to Jonathan’s thirtieth birthday. Capturing a time in which the legendary composer questioned his muse, “Tick, Tick… Boom!” provides insight into the mind of the man that would go on to create the ground-breaking musical “RENT” whilst exploring identity, expression and societal expectation.
