Jonathan Larson’s cutting-edge pop rock musical is based on Puccini’s La Boheme, and has electrified a whole generation of theatre-goers.RENT tells the story of a group of friends in a 1990’s New York City ravaged by the AIDS epidemic, as they come to terms with their place in an increasingly uncertain world.
Running from 9 – 23 May, the small, intimate Off Broadway Theatre adds a different dimension to the rock opera bringing the audience into the lives of some of pop culture’s most iconic characters.
RENT is presented through special arrangement with Hal Leonard Australia Ltd.
