12 Peers Theater's Tick, tick ... BOOM!

Theater Reviews + Features | Pittsburgh City Paper: Tick, tick ... BOOM! is an odd choice for 12 Peers Theater, or perhaps for any company this far into the 21st century. Though originally staged in its current form in 2001, Boom is set — and thoroughly rooted — in 1990. The one-act focuses on the angst of late Boomers/early Gen-Xers/Brady Bunch generationers on hitting the Big 3-0 without having achieved one's goal: still living like a kid while friends move into adulthood.
