Plot<\/strong>
Jon is about to turn 30 and is desperately trying to find a producer for his musical Superbia<\/i>. Realizing he is no longer very young, Jon struggles to tolerate the years of repeated professional failures and realizes he does not want to go on living as a penniless artist. His fianc\u00e9e Susan does not openly discourage him, but she wants something more from life and would like to have a family with Jon, but he cannot afford it. Jon’s frustration worsens when Michael, his longtime friend, abandons dreams of breaking through as an actor to pursue a more traditional and lucrative line of work. Jon prepares a Superbia<\/i> workshop<\/i> in front of numerous composers and producers, who greatly appreciate his work; however, none of them decide to invest in the show, and his dreams remain frustrated. Despite moments of discouragement, Jon makes peace with Susan after an argument, and the two decide to continue writing to each other. He also reconnects with Michael after discovering that his friend has tested positive for HIV. On the morning of his 30th birthday, he received a message from his idol Stephen Sondheim who had seen the workshop<\/i> of Superbia<\/i> and would like to talk to him about the future of the musical. Jon then realizes that he is loved and appreciated by his friends and colleagues and prepares to celebrate his birthday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bringing to the stage <\/i>tick, tick… BOOM! means to present for the first time in Italy the show by American composer and playwright Jonathan Larson, one of the most innovative contemporary authors of musicals. Larson, who speaks in the first person in this autobiography, died at age 35, the day before the debut of his show <\/i>RENT for which he would win the Pulitzer Prize<\/i>.
Artistic expression, foresight, and the Musical Theater’s inclusive vision enabled the prematurely deceased composer to win three Tony Awards, a Pulitzer, and the stigma that prevented the musical from bringing attention to social issues such as multiculturalism, drug addiction, and homotranssphobia.<\/i>
Addressing the same issues in Italy today with sensitivity and with the knowledge that we are doing so through a genre that continues to be associated exclusively with levity and entertainment is part of STM’s mission.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
