Olympia Theatre Presents RENT 28 April - 1 May
Following successful runs and nightly standing ovations in Wexford Opera House and Cork Opera House, Bare Cheek Theatre Company are delighted to bring the first professional Irish production of the award winning musical RENT to the Olympia for four performances only.
