Tick, Tick... Boom!

Published: Sept. 1, 2021, 9 a.m.

"The sound you are hearing is not a technical problem. It is not a musical cue. It is not a joke. It is the sound of one man's mounting anxiety. I... am that man."

Join John and John as they take a glance at the early work of composer and playwright Jonathan Larson and his work "Tick, Tick... Boom!". The pair discuss the tribulations of a small show, the trope of the "coming of age" story, and play a little "What if?".


Music, book, and lyrics by Jonathan Larson
