AMC announced today from the Television Critics Association (TCA) Press Tour winter and spring premiere dates for several new and returning original series

The 20th Anniversary production of Rent celebrated its opening last night 13 December at the St. James Theatre, London, and will run through 28 January 2017 before continuing on tour until May 2017. BroadwayWorld has photos from the festivities below!

Twenty years after it first premiered off Broadway, Jonathan Larson's iconic musical Rent has made a much anticipated return to the London stage. Following a group of artists living in New York City's East Village in the 1990's, struggling to pay the Rent, maintain their relationships and friendships and a number of them dealing with their HIV diagnosis, it is often wondered if audiences will still connect with the tribulations the characters go through. However the themes of loss, community, friendship and love are as prominent now as they were over two decades ago.

Robert Mackintosh and Idili Theatricals Limited, in association with Theatr Clwyd, are delighted to announce the addition of further dates to the tour schedule for the new 20th Anniversary production of Jonathan Larson's ground-breaking Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning musical RENT.
