Rent
Exuberant, passionate, and joyous, Rent is theatre at its best. On the 20th anniversary of its Broadway premiere, we’re excited to present this groundbreaking musical about falling in love, finding your voice, and living for today.
Based loosely on Puccini's La Boheme and set in the East Village of New York City, Rent follows one year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists. Struggling to survive and create under the shadows of addiction, poverty, and HIV/AIDS, these young bohemians negotiate their dreams, loves, and conflicts through rocking songs and a gripping story. With a book, music, and lyrics by the late Jonathan Larson, Rent is a pop culture phenomenon that won the Tony Award for Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It also contains mature thematic material involving drugs and sexuality, and some language. Parental discretion is advised.
