New RENT tour Cast for September?

I didn't know about that
are they still doing open calls for it?

isnt there going to be an equity tour going out?

I just saw the tour was coming to my city in December but i'm hesitant to get tickets considering last time I read reviews of this current tour, it was horrible...i wonder when they'll announce the new cast?

and the best overall performance of the show by a Rent tour in many years.

I haven't seen the current tour, so I can't really give an opinion, but I still think the tour with Andy Meeks & Dan Rosenbaum was one of the best tours in a long, long time.

I saw them very early on in the tour and despite the Mimi's singing issues (which for me were only a problem on Out Tonight and Another Day) the cast was amazing and put on a great show! Granted things change and what not but I really didn't see what everyone was ripping on the tour for. I thought everyone fit their role perfectly and had so much energy.

I was recently made aware by my friend on tour that the "Season of Love Soloist" is cast. Her name is Mimi Jimenz I saw a tape of her in the recent Asian Tour of "Grease" as the Teen Angel and she is amazing. A really strong high belt!

Hi Erin!

I hope that that the new cast includes actors that can sing and act. Jonathan might appreciate that!

Well at least there is sumtin goin on with the new casting....anyone else cast yet?

does anyone know the site that has the list of all peroformances and tours and whatnot? it was like a fansite or something that kept track.

Does anyone know if they've come to new york already?

where is everyone finding this info
I figured since it's the Non-eq. tour it would be more easier to get this info

and I really was looking forward to auditioning

zoneace, this is probably what you're looking for:

matthew, I'm fairly sure that auditions were held in the city already. Give Telsey a call and inquire.

Bdwy24, way to make assumptions. I have seen every touring cast in North America so I guess that makes me ancient at 22. This latest leg of the non-Equity tour has an excellent group of talented young actors. If you didn't enjoy them, then that's a shame because the majority of fans who have seen them have loved the show. They have also introduced thousands of new fans to the stage show and have done a good job at it. I'm not saying they're better than any particular Equity tour but they are just as compelling and they tell the story of Rent very well and that's what counts.

It's actually funny that you've compared them to the excellence of Cary, Saycon, and Norbert. Cary had one of the worst records for attendance and dedication on tour and he's one of the few to have been fired from the Broadway show. Saycon, although I loved her as Mimi, had many detractors when she was on tour, and Norbert, well, Norbert wasn't even in a tour of Rent! Perhaps you're thinking of his tour as the Emcee.

No mention where? This thread is about the current touring cast. :)
