One of the longest running shows in Broadway history, RENT tells the story of an unlikely group of friends in New York City who learn to love as they overcome hardship.
These young artists attempt to build lives, careers, and friendships in New York City against the backdrop of the HIV/AIDS crisis.
Although it has serious elements in it, it is a hopeful story full of humour, heart, and beautiful melodies.
