Synopsis


Adam Pascal, Anthony Rapp, and Gwen Stewart reprise the roles they originated on Broadway in Rent. Rent is the classic musical about love, friendship and community, and the seventh longest-running show in Broadway history. Now, Rent is coming to Chicago in a new touring production starring original Broadway cast members Adam Pascal and Anthony Rapp!

Over the course of its groundbreaking 12-year New York run, Rent transformed the definition of musical theater -- and changed Broadway forever. Set in NYC's East Village, Rent is a modern take on the classic Puccini opera, La Boheme. It tells the unforgettable story of a group of young artists learning to survive, falling in love, finding their voices and living for today.

Rent Merchandise

In New York's East Village, a group of bohemians struggle to express themselves through their art and strive for success and acceptance while enduring the obstacles of poverty, illness, and the AIDS epidemic. Roger is an aspiring songwriter who has emotionally shut down after his girlfriend's suicide. Despite his attraction, he is reluctant to start a new romance with his downstairs neighbor Mimi Marquez, an exotic dancer struggling with baggage of her own. Roger's roommate Mark is a filmmaker trying to balance art and commerce. His girlfriend Maureen, a self-indulgent performance artist, recently left him for a lawyer named Joanne. Also part of this close-knit circle is Tom Collins, a professor of philosophy who, after being mugged, is rescued by his soul mate, a high-spirited street drummer, Angel Shunard. Benny, who alienated his friends after he married their landlord's daughter, has reneged on his promise to provide rent-free artist space to his bohemian friends. Once a close friend, he is now viewed as the enemy, threatening them with eviction. Starring Rosario Dawson, Adam Pascal, Anthony Rapp, Taye Diggs, Wilson Heredia, Jesse Martin, Tracie Thoms, and Idina Menzel. Songs include “Rent,” “Seasons of Love,” “Another Day,” “Out Tonight,” and “I’ll Cover You.” This item may require additional shipping time due to availability.
