RENT, The Musical

Cabrillo Stage: 2018 Summer Musical Festival
RENT: limited 3 week engagement, June 28 - July 15

In 1996, an original rock musical by a little-known composer opened on Broadway… and forever changed the landscape of American theatre. Jonathan Larson’s RENT continues to speak loudly and defiantly to audiences across generations and all over the world. And now, this Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award®-winning masterpiece will come to Santa Cruz County. A re-imagining of Puccini’s La Bohème, RENT follows an unforgettable year in the lives of seven artists struggling to follow their dreams without selling out. With its inspiring message of joy and hope in the face of fear, this timeless celebration of friendship and creativity reminds us to measure our lives with the only thing that truly matters—love.
