Posted: 11/12/06 at 4:09pmActors' contracts mean nothing when it comes to how long a show will stay open. Most of The Wedding Singers' actors' contracts last through April 2007, but the show is closing next month. A few of the cast members of DRS before it closed on Broadway were only about 2 months into their contracts.

Actually, this "liable" source is one of my friend's friends. She's a pain in my butt and she thinks she knows everything about Broadway, and I actually think she's trying to piss my friend off because she loves Rent. My friend came to me and said Rent was closing. I practically choked on the food I was eating and said "Where the hell did you hear that?"
Needless to say I have pleaded with the kid, but she doesn't listen.
Did I mention the kid is like 12?

Wait...the title say Rent, but what's it about?
Good thing I have that "re" there to help me figure that out.
So wait, you came onto a board to ask people if your 12 year old friend of a friend was actually correct in stating that Rent was closing? Why would you even believe her? And why would you almost choke on your food? Rent will close someday and it won't be something to choke on your food over. It's just like every other show and it'll have a natural cycle that will one day come to an end. I'd venture to say that a good deal of people think that cycle should have come to a close by now.

Posted: 11/13/06 at 4:59pmI think that if Rent were closing, you wouldn't even have to ask anybody to be sure because there would be a big headline on BWW's home page, not to mention 100 Rent threads on the board.

I actually stated that to my friends, but they didnt believe me.
I don't believe this kid. Once again, I just want to show to her its not closing.
When I said I almost choked, I didnt mean upset. I was just suprised because there had been absolutely no board on here about it, and then I thought, "Wait a minute, thats not right!"
