Rent

Capturing both the 1996 Tony Award for Best Musical and that year’s Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Jonathan Larson’s ground-breaking rock musical is inspired by Puccini’s La Boheme. It is the story of a group of friends attempting to protect a squatters camp and maintain residency in an East Village building. With powerful performances and a score blending rock, ballads, R&B, and salsa, Rent has reinvented musical theater. Songs include “Seasons of Love,” “Light My Candle,” and “La Vie Boheme.”
A lottery will be conducted for a chance to purchase $20 tickets in the front two rows of the orchestra. Exactly two hours prior to each Rent performance, Ordway Center?s box office will begin distributing lottery tickets. After a 15-minute distribution of lottery tickets, a random drawing for the $20 tickets will take place.
