⭐ RENT REVIVAL ANNOUNCED FOR PETERBOROUGH NEW THEATRE & QUEEN’S THEATRE BARNSTAPLE – SUMMER 2024 ⭐
A new revival of the smash-hit rock musical RENT has been announced for 2024.
La Vie Boheme, Rent Heads! Landmark Theatres are delighted to announce their debut production of Jonathan Larson’s Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning rock musical RENT, which will open at Peterborough New Theatre on 20th June 2023 before visiting the Queen’s Theatre Barnstaple from 3rd July 2024.
RENT follows a group of young artists living in Manhattan’s East Village as they navigate love, loss, and the devastating impact of HIV/AIDS. The powerful and inspiring storytelling beautifully captures the ultimate sacrifice of a life of stability for the sake of art, reminding us of the importance of following our passions and taking risks to pursue our dreams.
Loosely based on Puccini’s opera La Boheme, RENT is a must-see musical featuring smash-hits including ‘Seasons of Love’ and ‘Take Me or Leave Me’.
The critically acclaimed production has won four Tony Awards, six Drama Desk Awards and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1996. Rent ran on Broadway for 12 years, from 1996 and premiered in London’s West End in 1998 at the Shaftesbury Theatre, where it ran for 18 months.
RENT marks the first Landmark Theatre Production. Paul Jepson directs, with musical direction by Mark Crossland.
RENT has a book, music & lyrics by Jonathan Larson.
