Sorry...this was mentioned in another thread and I thought it to be hysterical.
The next phenomenon?
I picture the drug addict scene ("got any C man?...) in christmas bells to look something like people hoarding Idina for autographs. And the voice messages could sound something like just about every response to the RENT movie blog: OOMMMGGG i cant waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit lolzzzz I'm Rosario's #1 Fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only FIVE MORE WEEEEEEEEEEEEEKS. ::
:)
I pictured Gwen Verdon in tights... until I re-read the thread title. Pretty scary.
haha wow, i was like i couldve sworn that said redhead: the muscial two seconds ago!

Wow I'm surprised more people haven't responded. This comment is mainly just to keep it fresh on the message board, but I'm interested to hear what people think some possible plot lines might entail? Perhaps a frantic staging of a scene outside the stage door, or a cameo by one of the members of the OBC? Would it portray the lives of rent-heads in sincerity, or spoof them a la Forbidden Broadway?
wow...this is starting to get fun...

the riot scene could be staged....
the TKTS booth, or just a cast appearance or something with fans mobbing them and police having to calm the riot. like in the movie during maureens protest.

thought this thread deserved a bump, so my comment served well
A young high school renthead getting Student Rush tickets, and realized he/she only has $19.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

theres gotta be a scene that involves a huge fight between the "#1 rentheads"
Another song title
"We hate stunt casting."
Or, "The next Mark is Clay Aiken"

What about an "I was a renthead before the movie" number?
And then the finale could be how the world ends when Rent closes.

and a number about the "true" RENTheads not being able to afford the $1000 reunion concert price.... entitled " the abomination"
Hey! I always loved the idea of Clay as Mark. Its only because his voice is like perfect for it. Can't a Renthead be a Claymate at the same time??
the "over the moon" protest could be a Renthead protesting how so many songs were cut from the movie

but clays so...creepy!!
Hahaha... I could totally see this. What You Own becomes a number about who has the best collection of RENT memorabilia, boots, etc. I can just hear the lyrics now...
"How do you recognize the words when the words can't be heard? The band's just too loud!"

leta take it all the way!!!!!!!!!!!
any Renthead musical would have to include a scene at the ziegfeld rent premiere- it was like the biggest gathering of rentheads the world has ever seen! and everyone crowding around anthony, too funny.
I think "Over The Moon" should be the mob scene outside the neder after the Lottery on April 29th...and who didn't win tickets.
I am so suprised no one fought for the damn key seat for the movie HA!
OUT Tonight could be the fans rant about which castmember is out of the show yet again..
I also would like to add my monologue that I wrote about 5 years ago..it was an inner monologue from Justin The Line Guy at the Nederlander.. my friend saved it and just sent it to me this past week.. I'd forgotten about it but, I think it's hilarious now.
Justin The Line Guy: Everyone Get On The Fking Grates!!!! Jesus Christ how the hell did I score a job like this? Oh yes, I have to pay my RENT. I need a smoke! Where are my fking cigarettes!! Oh I bet that "coma coma coma coma comelian rob" stole my last cigarette!! IT"S TIME TO CALL THE NAMES?? WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT'S TIME TO CALL THE NAMES ALREADY???? I Still Have To Be Bribed By The Fadale Fans To Win Tickets To Her 7th Last Show. Ok HEre Goes: JOEL TORRENCE, JOEL TORRENCE, JOEL TORRENCE, JOEL TORRENCE, ALLI BRODER, JOEL TORRENCE, JOEL TORRENCE, JOEL TORRENCE, YUNG CHUNG SHMAGUNG... YUNG SHMAGUNG ARE YOU HERE??? NO YUNG.. F**K THIS, JOEL DID YOU WIN YET??? Screw This, I'm Going to work for the non-equity tour of Cats.

I also think we need a "support group" for people who have gone broke because they just cant stop doing the rush.
Take Me Or Leave Me - It turns into a song about those of us whose friends cannot stand the RENThead aspect of our personality.
The What You Own idea is hysterical.
