WHAT'S THE DEAL?
"[In RENT], you'll find themes such as housing insecurity, healthcare, and social stigmas that are still relevant today, as well as feel-good lessons in love, hope, and the indefatigable spirit of the human mind.” — Broadwayworld.com
WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
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 HIV/AIDS. This production will be student-performed as the capstone to the 2024 Blackfriars Theatre Summer Intensive program, a professional summer training program for rising juniors in high school through recently-graduated college seniors.
***Content Warning: Rent includes themes of race inequality, death, HIV/AIDS, sex, gender fluidity, and anarchy. It includes sexual innuendo, romantic physical touch, and depictions of death. Recommended audience age: 14+***
