tick, tick ... Boom! revival at Theatr Clwyd in Wales
The show will run from 2 June to 28 June
New York. Jon is struggling - a dead-end job, a girlfriend who wants to settle down, and a musical he can’t finish. Does he leave the city and his dreams behind, or, follow his passion but risk losing everything?
An autobiographical musical about the ambition, perseverance and sacrifice needed to reach the edge of greatness.
The show that inspired Netflix’s hit film directed by Hamilton’s Lin-Manuel Miranda with Andrew Garfield.
Christina Modestou will play Susan, joined by Tarik Frimpong as Michael and Ryan Owen as Jon.
Kate Wasserberg, the director of the show, said: “We are delighted to begin a new era at Theatr Clwyd with such a fantastic show and such an amazing cast. Ryan Owen and Christina Modestou are two of Wales’ most exciting musical theatre talents and they are joined by the acclaimed Tarik Frimpong who brings a wealth of international experience. I am incredibly excited at the prospect of unveiling the redeveloped theatre to our audiences with Tick, Tick... Boom!. It is an apt title for this long-awaited moment.”
