As previously reported, Robbie Guevara will be returning to direct the restaging, with Mio Infante also returning as scenographer.

Tick, Tick… Boom! is a musical written by Jonathan Larson, the Pulitzer Prize-winning creator of Rent. It is a semi-autobiographical piece that explores Larson’s own experiences as an aspiring composer and playwright in the 1990s.

The story revolves around Jon, a struggling artist who is about to turn 30. Jon is at a crossroads in his life, torn between pursuing his dreams of making it big in the theater industry and succumbing to the pressures of practicality and stability. He is grappling with the fear of failure and the ticking clock of time, as he wonders if his artistic ambitions are worth the sacrifices he has made.

The show will run on August 2023 at the Carlos P. Romulo Auditorium of RCBC Plaza.
