Tick... Tick... Boom! Aug 2008

Crackerjack Review Continued - www.crackerjack.co.uk

Under this kind of pressure, and with a string of failures behind him, will Jon stick with his dream of making it big on Broadway? In real life he did just that, penning the international hit Rent.

Larson has an obvious hero in composer Stephen Sondheim and many of the songs reflect his style. This means complicated lyrics and demanding tunes which tested the talents of the singers, but there were impressive individual performances from Greg Townsend as Jon with the solo song Why? and from Leonie Harrison with the moving ballad Come To Your Senses.
