Tick, Tick… BOOM!

Identifying a Tony Award winner TICK, TICK… BOOM!, directed by Lin-Manuel Miranda, is a remake of the departed Jonathan Larson’s autobiographical musical that he wrote before the hugely successful Rent. The musical, which stars Andrew Garfield as Larson, is a “rock monologue” that follows the up-and-coming composer from Manhattan as he attempts to stage a workshop for the musical he created called Superbia in the run-up to his 30th birthday. Larson barely makes ends meet working as a server at a downtown diner.

Susan, a dancer who has been given a job teaching dance in the Berkshires, attempts to persuade Larson to go there while he struggles to create the last song for the musical-within-a-musical. As friends grapple with HIV-positive diagnoses, Larson’s best buddy Michael urges him to think about having a day job creating jingles.

Beasts of No Nation

Beasts of No Nation is a contemporary African novel about a little boy named Agu who witnesses the destruction of his caring family and his tranquil hamlet by warring groups during his country’s bloody civil war. Agu, who has fled for his life and is now lost in the woods, is found by a group of armed rebel youths who are wearing camouflage. The boys are orphaned and lost, just like Agu. They are kept united by a magnetic commander known only as “Commandant,” who has made them into a “battalion” consisting of young fighters utilizing guerrilla tactics to oppose the existing regime. Agu is chosen, given training, and instructed that each enemy he will see in combat is to blame for the demise of his father.

The youngster is thrust into an unstable world of warfare where victims turn into attackers, there are no straightforward allies, and the lonely, fearful gang is brainwashed, mistreated, and used as tools by the guy who is both their rescuer and their worst adversary. The listener is led through this awful trip through Agu’s narration.

Irreplaceable You

In Irreplaceable You, Abbie and Sam have been deeply in love since they were young children. They are now adults. He teaches college; she is a publisher. The couple is well along with wedding preparations, and things couldn’t look better. Their happiness is only increased when Abbie begins to exhibit early pregnancy symptoms.

Unfortunately, they learn Abbie is not pregnant when they go to the doctor. She has a tumor that is “tangerine-sized”. Additional testing shows that the cancer is at stage 4. Abbie’s life may be prolonged by active therapy, but the prognosis is grim. So the two set out on what would undoubtedly be their final trip together. Abbie decides to undergo chemotherapy, goes to see her mother, and takes part in a community of support.

Sam is a devoted, approachable, and eager companion. But Abbie also has other ideas in the works. She sets out to locate a lady Sam may fall in love with thereafter in an effort to relieve his misery and loss. Abbie’s plan, if nothing else, is to blame for the strife that has already erupted in the already delicate scenario. The worst part of it all, maybe, is that their relationship itself is in danger.
