Strange. This must be a newer development.

Originally, the University of Michigan was granted the chance to present the first production thanks to UMich alum Jefferey Seller; the original producer of RENT.

Either way... Good luck to all those involved!

I go to Adelphi and last night eavesdropped on a rehearsal. Sounds good. I think this is the best show to put on in our new performing arts building. Everyone come see it!!!!

Are tickets going to become available as the date gets closer? How are they all sold out? Are they going to be doing Rush or lottery since well it is RENT?

Any WAY of getting into a regular show



If I can't get tickets to the closing on Broadway I guess this will have to do.

I will offer $45 each

Coolkid, think logically for once.

Why would a college theater production do a lottery for tickets when they're all sold out except for 1 performance?

For the record, there are a number of tickets left for the Friday morning at 11 performance. That's the one I got.
