TICK TICK BOOM – A musical Jon is a composer on the verge of his 30th birthday. Driven by an internal, relentless ticking that threatens to detonate his world, he stands at the crossroads between his dreams and harsh reality. With just days left to finish writing his musical, he grows desperate and turns to his and his friends’ own life stories to find inspiration. But as his work takes shape, his relationships crumble: Susan yearns for stability, Michael chooses security. And still the ticking in Jon’s head grows louder and louder. Sometimes, from afar, he hears something else, soft yet unmistakable: BOOM!
A 360° stage and a live rock band catapult the audience into Jon’s world, a whirlwind of music and emotion. The clash of art and capitalism, the desperate pursuit of recognition, and the electrifying pulse of the ’90s fill the air. But when the lights fade, the music falls silent, and the ticking stops – what remains for Jon ?
