Thank you @Jordan2!  I saw Rent live and loved it.  I also love Bye Bye Birdie.

@Jordan2 Thank you! Like @NickNack, I saw RENT...first on Broadway and then more recently when it came to Chicago. Loved it! Especially love "One Song Glory" ... Heart

The storyline in RENT is adult.  It's not like watching Peter Pan with the kids.

 

Dare I admit, I fell asleep during a performace of RENT. (and Taye Diggs, Jesse L Martin and Idina Menzel were in it)

There's a 'school' or 'sanitized' version of Rent. I wonder if that's the version they'll be doing. None of these choices of musical really excites me.
