Rent is now selling tickets through to 22 Jun
Rent, written by Jonathan Larson, opened at Broadway�s Nederlander Theatre on 29 Apr 1996 following a sold out, extended limited engagement at off-Broadway�s New York Theatre Workshop.
Rent is the story of Le Boheme retold about poor New Yorkers on Lower East Side with a different ending.
Directed by Michael Greif and choreographed by Marlies Yearby, Rent features Nicolette Hart (Maureen), Tonya Dixon (Joanne), Rodney Hicks (Benny), Harley Jay (Mark Cohen), Declan Bennett (Roger Davis), Troy Horne (Collins), Justin Johnston (Angel) and Tamyra Gray (Mimi Marquez)
In a review of Rent, New York Theatre Guide wrote "It remains fresh for new audiences through its sheer exuberance and its longer running themes of tolerance and understanding."
The show has set design by Paul Clay, costumes by Angela Wendt and lighting by Blake Burba.
