Shadowbox Live Presents RENT, Opens 3/6

Shadowbox Live is proud to announce their next musical production, the Tony Award winning Broadway show, Rent.

Based on Puccini's opera La Boheme, Rent tells the story of a group of young Bohemians struggling to live and love in modern New York City. The show premiered in 1996 and immediately made waves with its controversial story line and rock ‘n' roll style songs.

"The cutting edge, raw energy of Rent is particularly well suited to Shadowbox Live," says Stev Guyer, Executive Producer and CEO. "Every great aspect of this show is an area where we excel. I guarantee ours will be a version you'll not want to miss."

Rent opens on Sunday, March 6th at 7:00 PM, and runs every Sunday at 2:30 PM & 7:00 PM through April 17, 2011. Tickets are $30 / $20 for students, seniors, and active military. For reservations contact the Shadowbox Box Office at 614-416-ROCK (7625) or go online to www.shadowboxlive.org .
