The year kicks off with Stone Soup’s first venture into musical theatre with the San Diego premiere of Jonathan Larson’s,
tick, tick…BOOM! previewing February 22nd and opening February 23rd through March 30th at the LAB Theatre at the
Academy of Performing Arts. The much-anticipated San Diego premiere,
tick, tick…BOOM! is the critically-acclaimed
autobiography of
Rent composer Jonathan Larson. After his sudden death in 1996, Larson’s one-man musical tale of a
young composer on the brink of turning 30 and falling into oblivion was re-shaped by Pulitzer-Prize winning playwright
David Auburn into its current award-winning form. Time Magazine exclaims that
tick, tick…BOOM! is
“Better than
The Producers” and the Associated Press hails “This is musical theatre writing at its most inventive." Please
note: contains some adult language and situations and may not be appropriate for patrons under thirteen.

Performances will be Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
All Tickets $25
Student Rush Tickets: $20 only available one hour before performances, limited seating available

young aristocrat’s seduction of her father’s valet during a Midsummer’s Eve celebration. The new process translation by
the internationally acclaimed Strindberg scholar Dr. Anne-Charlotte Hanes Harvey, will be helmed by San Diego director
Robert Dahey and will star Stone Soup Artistic Director Rebecca Johannsen and San Diego favorite Matthew Thompson.
