An explosive solo performance that documents the music, culture, and politics that shaped the Baby Boom generation. Rick Miller takes us through 25 turbulent years—from the first atomic bomb in 1945 all the way to the Apollo 11 landing on the moon in 1969—and gives voice to over 100 influential politicians, activists, and musicians. This stunningly staged production blends cutting-edge multimedia, tour-de-force storytelling, and 25 moment-defining songs. BOOM is a mind-blowing experience that will thrill audiences of all generations.
