DIRECTOR'S NOTE FROM THE PLAYBILL

The story of Jonathan Larson's life is one that most artists can identify with. What do we sacrifice for our art? Our relationships? Our time with friends? Or perhaps even the time we have left on this Earth.

Time is the ever-creeping antagonist of tick, tick...Boom!, slowly reminding Jon that his friends are moving on, and moving on into new struggles that he may not be able to comprehend. So what then can we do with ourselves when we have nothing else? We create.
