The sell-out Hope Mill Theatre production of Rent will be broadcast online over a number of dates during its production run. The new revival of the cult classic is set to open at the end of Ocrober, with the cast currently rehearsing in a bubble.
The show will be presented on 27, 28 and 29 November, 4, 5 and 6, 11, 12 and 13, 18, 19 and 20 December, with performances beginning at 7.30pm BST. Tickets go on sale on 9 October.
Directed by Luke Sheppard (& Juliet, Spring Awakening)
Rent is a rock musical with music, lyrics, and book by Jonathan Larson and is loosely based on Giacomo Puccini’s opera La Bohème.
It tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists struggling to survive and create a life in Lower Manhattan’s East Village in the thriving days of Bohemian Alphabet City, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.
This event is not run by the Joseph Rowtree Theatre and has been included as part of the Virtual Theatre. For any questions regarding tickets and the event, please contact the event organiser.
We can't go out so we're not spending money on things like coffee and cakes, glass of wine or beer, and generally eating out and socialising.
Why not pop the money you’ve saved on some of these things into a jar and put it towards the Raise the Roof appeal. If we ask friends and family to do the same we could raise a reasonable amount of money for the appeal.
Even if we only put a couple of pounds a week away it would all add up. What do you think - shall we give it a go? It would be great if once our wonderful theatre can reopen we have lots of jars of money to hand over!
