Pascal, Rapp to Reunite for One-Night Only Performance at Cerritos Center, 10/15
The iconic musical Rent took the theater world by storm, winning the Pulitzer Prize for drama and four Tonys, and turned Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal into instant marquee sensations. In a Pop-Rock evening at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts (CCPA), Rapp and Pascal presents tunes from the Broadway production as well as original material on Saturday, October 15, 8:00 PM. Tickets, priced from $55-$35, are available at the CCPA Ticket Office, www.cerritoscenter.com, or by calling (562) 467-8818.
Two stars FROM THE TONY-WINNING BROADWAY HIT RENT return to the stage to share stories and perform songs from the successful Broadway production. The San Francisco Chronicle cheered Anthony Rapp, noting his ability "to disappear perfectly into all kinds of character roles." Starting with his first major appearance - Adventures in Babysitting when he was just 15 - Rapp's career has included the title role in the Broadway revival of You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, a national tour of Little Shop of Horrors, and featured parts in the films Dazed and Confused, A Beautiful Mind, School Ties, Road Trip, and Six Degrees of Separation. The Illinois native also penned Without You: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and the Musical ‘Rent'.
On a whim, Adam Pascal, who had no previous acting or theater experience, auditioned for Rent and was cast as an HIV-positive, recovering drug-addict and aspiring Rock star. The role garnered Pascal a 1996 Theatre World Award and earned him Tony and Drama Desk nominations for best actor in a musical. The exposure paved the way for the New York native to return to the stage in the long-running Broadway show Cabaret and the Elton John-Tim Rice musical Aida (as the Egyptian general Radames). Pascal, who recorded two albums of original Pop music (Model Prisoner and Civilian), has appeared in the film School of Rock and an episode of the television show Cold Case.
