RENT

Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Broadway opening of the iconic Pulitzer Prize- and Tony Award-winning rock musical RENT, brought to life by the Vocal Performance Program at Steinhardt. This reimagined production will delve into themes of community, identity, and access to medical care, contextualized through the lens of the 21st century. Students, ranging from freshmen to doctoral candidates, will present this powerful narrative, enriched by a brief pre-show presentation and a post-performance talkback featuring cast members, student researchers, and content experts.

** This production of RENT contains mature themes and content that may be challenging for some audience members. Topics include references to HIV/AIDS and terminal illness, substance use, homelessness, poverty, and death. The musical also includes strong language, depictions and discussions of sexual relationships, and moments of emotional distress.

 Audience discretion is advised, particularly for younger viewers or those who may be sensitive to these themes.

This show also contains bright lights that face the audience, and may have a strobing effect.
