Seats in the front two rows of the orchestra pit will be made available for $20 for every performance of "RENT: The Broadway Tour," the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical, at the Fabulous Fox Theatre. The $20 tickets go on sale at the Fox Theatre 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, while tickets last.
"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" is marking its 7th engagement in St. Louis and the Fox Theatre has kept this tradition alive each and every time - with growing popularity for the $20 tickets.
"RENT: The Broadway Tour" returns to the Fabulous Fox Theatre June 2-7. The $20 tickets are available at the Fox Theatre box office only - 527 N Grand Blvd. For general ticket information, please call MetroTix at 314-534-1111 or visit www.metrotix.com.
