I think alot of the sexuality things were changed in the Rent Jr thing. I didn't go to it either, but I had some friends that did.

Which reminds me that I went to a High School pops concert and two girls sang "Take Me Or Leave Me" from Rent, but were singing it to two boys...

As for the thread:
Debbie Does Dallas Jr
Bare Jr
The Full Monty Jr

They really changed nothing else, but the school is so scared of doing anything with "lesbian conotations." The song didn't make sense, but hey...as long as there are two heterosexual couples.

We all know that MTI's Jr series is for middle school students, right? I know of no middle school that calls their 8th or 9th graders seniors.

"..things like making the singing not as challenging.."

Did some REALLY say that about "Rent"?

Bel Canto lives!

as weird as it sounds, they ARE making either a JR or a school edition of Avenue Q. i know one of the people working on it... why, i dunno. hahaha I dont know HOW that will wind up working out, considering the majority of the songs will be cut, bleeped, or changed to "the internet is for homework"... which is not entirely its purpose. :-p

"Oh, and how could I forget "Naked Boys Singing, Jr."? Sure to be a big hit on the middle school circuit."

Or those creeps on Dateline NBC - you know the internet perves.

Highschool RENT? Wouldn't they have to get rid of the entire concept of the show? Take out Angel, take out Collins, Take out Maureen and Joanne, take out the orgy scene, take out the fact that Mimi's a stripper and does drugs...

Well, they actually have a school edition people can butcher. But the junior version would probably be worse. :P

The school version of Rent has had its second workshop, this time at Stagedoor Manor. It's an ongoing project for MTI, and not as much has been changed as some of you might expect.

I heard the Stagedoor version went badly and they are not releasing it as soon as they hoped.

Someone said they cut the orgy scene.

This is an awesome thread!!!

"The Bakers Wife, Jr." where the baker runs off with the most popular senior girl

"Rent, Jr." Where Mimi takes Pop Rocks and Coke

"Evita, Jr" where Evita isnt a dictator but the head cheerleader (which is really no different)

I think the idea of a RENT,jr. version is just insane. Why won't Jonathan Larson's parents step and tell them not to make it. The entire show will be lost. They've already disgraced the show with the sh*tty movie.
