Rent 10th Anniversary concert

I think it'd be a smart way to get more money for the charities.

Hopefully they will.

no it wouldn't all. it would be like when they filmed and sold the Les Miserables 10th Anniversary concert. The RENT anniversary will not be a performance, only a simple singing through of the show.

aaahhh hhaaahhhaa hhhaaaa!!!!!!!

the point is to celebrate 10 years on broadway, and for people who would like to see the original cast sing the songs live.

well I think cause there older and whatever they're not going to do the full show. They might break a hip or something .

everyone.

Where did the guy who started the, was it a *pitition*, something like that.....go? Remember him? He had the biggest fit over the 1000$ tickets...lol.

The 1G is also a total tax write off- though I realize for most of us in the arts, that's not of much of a consolation!

for those that emailed for an invitaion how long ago did you send the email? If I sent one a week ago do you thing it was too late? I feel so in the dark waiting for the invite to arrive or not arrive

"The 1G is also a total tax write off- though I realize for most of us in the arts, that's not of much of a consolation! "

Or those of us in the nonprofit world, who also happen to live across the country. If I was in NYC, or nearby, I might consider it my splurge for the year, but with hotel, and flight, and you know food, it gets to be VERY steep. That night I might do a Rent party, with the movie. I do wish they had opened the lotto up to non east coasters. I just cannot see too many people on the West Coast taking time off work (or school!), paying for a flight, hotel, what not, on the very slim chance they would get a lotto ticket. And though I think the originals still look good, (Especially considering they will be on stage, and not up close.) in ten years I do not see this working. I also cannot imagine that some acting will not go on. I cannot imagine them being able to sit still for say La Vie Boheme, for example. (During that song I found it hard not to dance in my chair in the movie theater. Luckily I cannot walk, or I would have been very tempted to get up out of my seat and dance!)

Although I can see why the original cast should be singing the songs at the shows 10th anniversary. It would be nice to hear the songs sung by other people, as we have had the OBC the film and the soundtrack all sung by the same or similar people. At least if they had others singing we might get another recording. Yeah!

I just got my invitation, through work though, not requesting one.

I am very tempted to go, I am not sure...
