$20 Front Row Ticket Sale Available For RENT At The Paramount Theatre 6/16-21

Seats in the front two rows of the orchestra will be made available for $20 for every performance of RENT: The Broadway Tour, the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical, at The Paramount Theatre. The $20 tickets go on sale at the box office, on the day of performance only, two hours prior to the show and are available to anyone, cash only, with a limit of two tickets per person.

"In keeping with the spirit of the show and the vision of Jonathan Larson, the show's creator, we are happy to be able to offer prime seats to people who otherwise would not be able to purchase them," said original "RENT" producer Kevin McCollum. "Jonathan was himself a struggling artist and his dream was to create a universal piece of musical theatre that's available to everyone."

The tradition of the $20 tickets was started in New York when the show moved to Broadway after a sold-out run in a small downtown theatre. Since that time people have lined up as early as the night before to guarantee their purchase of the $20 tickets. The producers of the show are committed to continuing the tradition of offering orchestra seats for $20 in each city the show will play.

"RENT: The Broadway Tour" makes its Seattle return at The Paramount Theatre, June 16 - 21, 2009. The $20 tickets are available at the box office, 911 Pine Street, only.
