MARK YOUR CALENDAR - Changes at MetroStage

Due to scheduling conflicts, tick, tick...BOOM! has been pushed to start a week later.

  • First Preview (Pay-What-You-Can) will now be Thursday, October 11, 2007 at 8:00pm.

  • Opening/ Press night will be Sunday, October 14th at 7:00pm.

The show is still slated to close on Sunday, November 25th, but there is a possibility of an extension.

Also, the same problem has occurred with Cookin' at the Cookery.

  • First Preview (Pay-What-You-Can) will now be Thursday, January 24, 2008 at 8:00pm.

  • Opening/ Press night will be January 27th at 7:00pm.
The show is still set to close on Sunday, March 9, 2008. We are still discussing the option of adding additional performances on Wednesday evenings. We'll keep you posted if this happens.

We regret any inconvenience this causes, but it was unforeseeable and the end result will lead to a most fabulous and entertaining musical experience.

Our First Production Meeting

We had our first preliminary Production Meeting on Monday, August 27th and we got to meet the set designer, Adam Koch; lighting designer, Mark Lanks and costume designer, Sasha Ludwig-Siegel. These fresh, young newcomers to MetroStage had some great ideas for tick, tick...BOOM!.

Since the set has to be everywhere (lots of locations) and nowhere at the same time, it has a very downtown/industrial feel to it. Here is the model, rendered in black & white for now, of the set:
More details to come later...
