Broadway World Los Angeles says Tick, Tick… Boom! is “pretty perfect”!

“Tick, Tick… Boom! is that rare contemporary Broadway musical that is pretty perfect, especially the Chance Theater production, which is superlative.”

“appreciated the imaginative, vibrant, insightful casting by Shinshin Yuder Tsai and the brilliant scenic design work from Fred Kinney and Mio Okada.”

“from COVID shutdowns to industry strikes and now the unspeakable devastation of the latest wildfires, the resilience and hopefulness at the core of this Chance Theater production feel like a tonic.”

“Direction by H. Adam Harris is generous, observant, warm-hearted. Performances are winning, anchored by the impeccable charms of lead Luc Clopton, whose innate warmth, easygoing charisma, and deadpan comic delivery are a gift as Jonathan Larson. Lena Ceja, playing Jon’s dancer girlfriend Susan. and a host of other characters including most wonderfully his cantankerous agent, is sexy, radiant, and compelling.”

“Mario Houle steals the show as Larson’s Best Friend Michael”

“Houle has something ineffable about his performance that is hard to describe, but he has that immutable authenticity, gorgeous voice and profound truthfulness that reach through the character and touch us at our core.”

“But all in all, the Chance Theater production of Tick, Tick… Boom! is an absolute treasure.”

“I am impressed by the creative team at the Chance Theater and the warm, inclusive, supremely engaged community they have created around live storytelling. You know from the moment you enter the Chance Theater that this is a very special place.”
