“Director Matthew McCray has assembled a group of very talented and young actors with kinetic energy that dazzles”
“fantastic costumes by Bradley Allen Lock”
“entire cast looked stunning on stage”
“This is a production that is rich in emotional expressions.”
“In dance, character, and voice Lena Ceja is a revelation as Mimi”
“The iridescent Leiva as Angel was a source of light throughout.”
“Ripley gives a performance as JoAnne that makes the character rival Mr. Clopton’s Mark as the glue that holds the show together — her voice is sonorous and her stage presence strong — the great duet with Clopton, “Tango: Maureen,” is a standout.”
“electrifying chemistry”
“portrayal of the incredible fear of death, the joys of new love, and the loss of creative spaces”
Set in the East Village of New York City, Rent is about falling in love, finding your voice and living for today. Winner of the Tony Award for Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Rent is a pop cultural phenomenon, with songs that rock and a story that resonates with audiences of all ages. Based loosely on Puccini’s La Boheme, the musical 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 is theatre at its best – exuberant, passionate and joyous.
NOTE: This show contains mature content and strong language.

“The exhilarating, landmark rock opera…a glittering inventive score.”New York Times
“Rent will move the culture forward, possibly so far that it’ll be easy to forget the recent era in which it was something so completely shocking.”
