SYNOPSIS
THE GEN X FOLLOW-UP TO RICK MILLER'S HIT SHOW BOOM !
BOOM X picks up where BOOM left off, at Woodstock in August of ’69. Rick time travels by way of multimedia up to 1995. Some classic characters reappear (Elvis gets fat, Reagan gets shot, and Trudeau gets re-elected), but the focus moves from his mother's story to his own. The production follows Gen X-ers as they navigate the tangled legacy of the baby boom.
The show is 2 hours and 10 minutes including intermission.
Each performance will be followed by a 15 minute talkback with Rick Miller

LISA'S NOTE 
The sequel you’ve all been waiting for! "BOOM" was the surprise hit of the 2015-2016 season, and I’m 'stoked' to have Rick Miller back on the Segal stage and to see how he tackles my generation.
