Rent March 12, 2011

Stagecrafters presents Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer Prize-winning musical 'Rent.' Based on Puccini's 'La Boheme,' 'Rent' is a revolutionary rock opera that tells the story of a group of seven friends trying to carve out lives against the backdrop of New York's seedy East Village. "Measuring their lives in love," these impoverished young artists and musicians struggle to pursue their dreams and gain acceptance while they're forced to grapple with AIDS, sexuality, addiction -- and simply paying the rent. Powerful, raw and intense, Rent will inspire us to reaffirm that there is "no day but today."
