RENT!!! If you haven’t seen this Broadway classic you are missing out tremendously. I’ve seen it several times and it is absolutely phenomenal. Rent is celebrating its 20th Anniversary Tour with a short stop in South Florida, October 7 – 9, 2016. That’s only 5 performances over the course of 3 short days and you won’t want to miss out. Fortunately you have the chance to see it for SUPER DUPER cheap thanks to the pre-show lottery being held prior to each performance, making tickets won in the Rent ticket lottery only $25 per ticket at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts.
RENT 20th Anniversary Tour: October 7 – 9, 2016
“Forget regret or life is yours to miss“ – Jonathan Lawson
“You’ll never share real love until you love yourself“ – Jonathan Lawson
In 1996, an original rock musical by a little-known composer opened on Broadway… and forever changed the landscape of American theatre. Two decades later, Jonathan Larson’s RENT continues to speak loudly and defiantly to audiences across generations and all over the world. And now, this Pulitzer® Prize and Tony Award®-winning masterpiece returns to the stage in a vibrant 20th anniversary touring production. A re-imagining of Puccini’s La Bohème, RENT follows an unforgettable year in the lives of seven artists struggling to follow their dreams without selling out. With its inspiring message of joy and hope in the face of fear, this timeless celebration of friendship and creativity reminds us to measure our lives with the only thing that truly matters—love.
