CENTERstage Productions announces open auditions for The CENTER Black Box production of the musical TICK, TICK… BOOM! with book, music, lyrics by Jonathan Larson.

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 on tables and trying to write the great American musical. Set in 1990, this compelling story of personal discovery is presented as a rock musical filled with instantly appealing melodies and a unique blend of musical theatre styles.

Before Rent, there was Tick, Tick... Boom!. This autobiographical musical by Jonathan Larson, the Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning composer of Rent, is the story of a composer and the sacrifices that he made to achieve his big break in theatre. Containing 14 songs, 10 characters, and three actors, Tick, Tick... Boom! takes you on the playwright/composer's journey that led to a Broadway blockbuster.
