Z100, New York's Number One Hit Music Station and Musicians on Call has announced that Wantagh High School is the winner of its Get Active Public Service Campaign with "Rent On Broadway."

Students will be treated to a private concert in their school auditorium latter this month hosted by Danielle Monaro of Z100's Elvis Duran and the Morning Zoo. The entire cast of RENT will be on hand to perform some of the memorable songs from the hit musical including: "Glory," "Out Tonight," "Without You," "Take Me Or Leave Me," "What You Own," "I'll Cover You," and "Season of Love."
