Modern technology and an old-school friendship are at the heart of the youthful Broadway musical 'Be More Chill' jacarucci

This image released by Keith Sherman & Associates shows the cast during a performance of the musical "Be More Chill," in New York. Based on the 2004 book by Ned Vizzini, “Be More Chill” tells the story of an awkward teen, played onstage by Will Roland, whose life transforms when he swallows a tiny computer that gives him the confidence to break out of his shell.

The “Be More Chill” songsmith cites Stephen Sondheim, the songwriting team of John Kander and Fred Ebb, and William Finn as some of his favorites.“I’m really inspired by 1964 World’s Fair. I just like that World’s Fair. It works its way into my work in strange ways,” the 37-year old Iconis revealed in a recent interview.

Based on the 2004 book by Ned Vizzini, “Be More Chill” tells the story of an awkward teen, played onstage by Will Roland, whose life transforms when he swallows a tiny computer that gives him the confidence to break out of his shell. Playwright Joe Tracz wrote the book for the show. Tepper and Iconis have collaborated for almost a decade on musicals, concerts and other projects, including “Love in Hate Nation” and “Bloodsong of Love.”
