Set in New York City’s East Village between 1989 and 1990, RENT is the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical by Jonathan Larson that became a defining pop culture phenomenon. Through love and acceptance, the rock musical follows a diverse group of struggling artists navigating life during the AIDS crisis, as they strive to find themselves and the art they wish to create.
With its powerful themes of strength and connection, RENT features iconic numbers including “Seasons of Love,” “La Vie Bohème,” and “Take Me or Leave Me.” The revolutionary musical continues to resonate with audiences around the world.
