RENT
Music, lyrics, and book by Jonathan Larson
May 2-4 & 9-11, 2025
Jonathan Larson’s RENT not only completely revolutionized musical theatre when it debuted in 1994, it also won a Pulitzer Prize, and raised awareness for major issues that many Americans still face today.
Perfectly encapsulating the angst that came with poverty, addiction, gentrification, and the AIDS epidemic, as well as the undeniable tenacity and vibrancy of the human spirit, RENT is, above all, a celebration of life and art.
