Synopsis This powerful, semi-autobiographical, rock musical in one act is by Jonathan
Larson, the creator of RENT. His girlfriend wants to get married and move out of
the city, his best friend is making big bucks on Madison Avenue, and yet Jon is still
waiting tables and trying to write the great American musical. Set in 1990, this
compelling story of personal discovery takes you on the playwright/composer’s
journey that led to a Broadway blockbuster.
Thank you for turning off your cell phones.

The Lakeside Drama Association, Inc. (LDA) is a parent-run booster club, whose
purpose is to help provide excellent drama and musical theatre opportunities for
Lakeside students, as well as promote the development, education, and
continuation of the performing arts as part of the curriculum at Lakeside High
School.
We appreciate our community’s support as we continue to build a solid
foundation for theatre excellence at Lakeside.
Directors’ Note Tick, Tick… Boom! marks our fifth production with the Lakeside Theatre Company
and the Lakeside community. Though we always have a personal connection to
our shows, this is a show that speaks to us much louder. Jon’s desire to build
something incredible as time ticks away is a reoccurring theme, not only on our
stage tonight, but in all of our Lakeside productions. We’re only given four years
with each actor, actress and crew member that comes through our doors and we
push hard to create something greater than the sum of all its parts. Jonathan
Larson created with that same fervor, a fire to make… art. In his 35 years, Larson
created two incredible shows, one that would speak to his generation and send us
into a frenzy that created scores of eager teens and young adults outside the
Nederlander Theater hungry to see Larson’s Magnum Opus. The other would
serve as a musical autobiography, a look inside Larson’s head and heart as he
wrote day and night to get the world to hear him. We’re honored to put your
words and music on our stage, Jon, and we hope you and our audience enjoy our
show. —G & C
