"At last, a show that lives up to its hype! RENT is theatre at its best: passionate, exuberant, uplifting, and joyous." – Theatermania

Set in the East Village of New York City, RENT is about falling in love, finding your voice and living for today. 

Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, RENT has become a pop cultural phenomenon.

Based loosely on Puccini's La Boheme, Jonathan Larson's RENT follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York's Lower East Side, under the shadow of unimaginable struggles at the height of an 1980’s and 1990s epidemic.

How these young bohemians negotiate their dreams, loves and conflicts provides the narrative thread to this groundbreaking musical.

"What makes RENT so wonderful is not its hipness quotient, but its extraordinary spirit of hopeful defiance and humanity." – The New York Times

Due to mature themes, language, and topics this performance is recommended for audiences 18 and older.

“RENT rejoices in the truth of what it tries to capture. That life and relationships are fun, gritty, painful, wonderful, and ever changing. Every time I listen to RENT, I am reminded to be grateful for my friends and to relish in the experience of my own passing seasons of love.” – Joey Rodriguez, Cast as Tom Collins (by The Wallace)
