This should be the name of a spin off TV Show (not a musical sequel - those never work) about the characters of RENT in the days following those covered by the musical. It could be like THE BRADYS.
Benny can be the one who gets parylized in the racing accident. Joanne has become a recovering alcholic. Maureen ends up owning a boutique. Mimi is a nurse in Queens. Mark comes out and is living with Collins. And all the significant others can be played by performers who were in BROOKLYN the musical.
You have got to be kidding me. It's time to MOVE ON, you two!
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
~ Muhammad Ali
It should take place in an alternate reality where Angel didn't die. Then he should get his own spinoff called "That's My Tranny!" where moves to a suburb of Chicago and tries to balance being a dad, being a husband, being a sportswriter and being a tranny, while learning some valuable lessons along the way.
The girl in the furry bra of course has to deal with overcoming breast cancer. She is a patient of Mimi's in Queens and Joanne is her legal counsel (she's suing a former East Village club for exposing her to hazardous chemicals) but Joanne is off the wagon again so she has to get help from the guy in the furry hat, who is now on the supreme court for assistance.
Hey everyone, so now that it's official I am happy to announce that Anthony and I will be doing the Final Rent Tour, beginning Jan of 09...We are very excited to close this chapter of our Rent experience in a way that will bring it to thousands of people who never got the chance to see us on Broadway! Hope to see you there. Also don't forget to catch Me and Larry on tour from now until then, and look for the release of "Blinding Light", our debut CD, out this April.... Adam
Rentluvr, I would think about that very carefully. Despite what ReNt tells us, you don't get to come bursting out to sing with your friends after you die.
