Sure, RENT won't be performed on Broadway anymore, but it will live on. Of course it is incredibly sad and it will be missed, but its not dying. It will be remembered, performed, listened to, we still have the movie. So its really wrong they're saying that, just because it wont be on BROADWAY. And theres always hope for a revival :)
SO its not the END...

It is the end of an era, its Broadway era, its 12 year run in the same home.Thats what they mean by the end of an era
Like it was the end of an Era when Rent Remixed closed here in the UK last week......erm ok maybe that was an end of a nightmare

Posted: 2/6/08 at 7:42pmNo of course its not, but i think its quite an honor to have the closure of the show to be called the end of an era

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Posted: 2/6/08 at 7:44pmEnd of an era doesn't mean dead. Dead means dead.

I can't wait to see what the SPRING AWAKENING fans say. We all know it won't last nearly as long as RENT did.
What will they call it?
"The end of a fortnight?"

I'm so old that my original rent bootlegs were on THESE!
#19re: Dont call it the 'End of an Era'...
Posted: 2/6/08 at 8:00pmPeople, chill. I just said bootleg as an example if you read close enough. Or do your eyes just scan for things to call people on? Seriously. I didnt say anything about me owning or watching any bootlegs, now did I?

#22re: Dont call it the 'End of an Era'...
Posted: 2/6/08 at 8:02pmI think "era" is a bit extreme to define the run of Rent. A little perspective please.
....but the world goes 'round

Posted: 2/6/08 at 8:14pmThe definiton of era does not contain a specific number of years. It's perfectly fine to call a 12 year run of a show an era.
