The Jonathan Larson Project

Though he tragically never found fame in his own lifetime, Jonathan Larson is now well known as the genius behind the musicals Tick, Tick… Boom! and most famously Rent. His tragically early death aged just 35 meant we were robbed of decades more work that he might have made, but even so he had plenty of songs that weren’t featured in his two famous works. The Jonathan Larson Project is a jukebox revue that tells Larson’s story via his well known songs and obscurities from the vault. A hit off-Broadway, John Simpkins’ production transfers to Southwark Playhouse with a new London cast.
