⭐ HOPE MILL THEATRE CONFIRMS RENT WILL PLAY TO SOCIALLY DISTANCED AUDIENCES THIS AUTUMN ⭐
Hope Mill Theatre’s hotly-anticipated revival of classic rock musical RENT will be going ahead, it has been announced.
It will run to socially distanced audiences this autumn – with the 12-strong cast forming a ‘bubble’ for the duration of the show’s run in Manchester.
RENT, directed by Luke Sheppard, was due to play at the venue in July, but the run was postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The venue has been working hard and keeping updated with new guidance being released regarding inside performances and after much careful consideration are excited to announce the production is scheduled to go ahead as planned.
Hope Mill Theatre will be operating with strict covid guidelines in place in line with the Government guidance for the performing arts.
This will include operating at 50% capacity per show with audience rows spaced 2 metres apart and a transparent safety screen separating bookings.
RENT is a rock musical with music, lyrics, and book by Jonathan Larson and is loosely based on Puccini’s opera La Bohème. It tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists living, loving and working in Manhattan’s East Village, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.
Casting is due to be announced soon.
RENT will be playing the Hope Mill Theatre form 30th October – 6th December 2020.
