RENT
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Musical, RENT comes roaring into Temple Theaters' Tomlinson Stage in one of the Philadelphia area's first new productions following the legendary Broadway sensation. RENT celebrates the hopes, fears, dreams and struggles of an entire generation of artists in New York City towards the end of the 20th Century. Based on Puccini's opera "La Boheme," RENT is a joyful and ultimately moving rock opera of epic scale and intimate emotion, chronicling the lives, loves and deaths of a wildly colorful group of aspiring young East Village artists and hangers-on. In the words of the late Jonathan Larson, spoken to a NY Times reporter after seeing the first dress rehearsal of his new show, literally hours before his sudden tragic death at the age of 35: "RENT is about a community celebrating life, in the face of death and AIDS, at the turn of the century."
