⭐ RUMOUR – RENT – WEST END REVIVAL PLANNED ⭐
A new West End revival of the smash-hit musical RENT is being planned, it has been rumoured.
A new production of Jonathan Larson’s Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning rock musical will reportedly be coming to London’s West End this year.
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 features smash-hits including “Rent”, “La Vie Bohème”, “Take Me or Leave Me” and “Seasons of Love”.
The critically acclaimed musical 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 has a book, music & lyrics by Jonathan Larson.
Everything crossed for this one! ! !
