Tick, Tick… Boom! (Tikk-takk Bumm!)
Wednesday, March 25, 2026, 7:00 p.m. Jonathan Larson’s autobiographical musical first hit the Off-Broadway stage in New York, then conquered global stages, spawning a multi-award-winning Netflix film in 2021. As composer Jon approaches his 30th birthday, he grapples with big questions: Where is his career at? Will he ever break through? Is this really his path? He senses something significant has to happen before he turns 30. Follow three young lives: Jon, the struggling composer; Michael, his best friend who swapped acting dreams for a PR gig; and Susan, Jon’s dancer girlfriend still chasing her break. The show feels like an intimate acoustic club gig, with actor Ember Márk as Jon delivering a raw stand-up vibe that unpacks a sensitive artist’s doubts. With live music, the three actors slip into multiple roles to tackle Generation Y woes: no wars, no hunger, cushy upbringings, yet terror of real adult life. The weight of maturity, irreversible choices, future fears, and commitment phobias crushes them, but they muddle through with varying success.
