Well Maureen (Maggie Benjamin) and Collins (Mark Richard Ford) aren't new to the show, they've been in RENT before. They are both great. Maggie is an amazing Maureen. However, they are both leaving soon.

I haven't seen Tonya (Joanne) but I've heard mixed things.

Mark and Maggie are oldtime Rent alums who are filling in til the new people arrive. Tonya Dixon is the new Joanne and she is, by all accounts, amazing.

I haven't seen Rent in two years but I want to now that I saw those Broadwday.com videos. They're really charming!

Has anyone seen Telly Leung as Steve? I would love to hear a report.

I thought Telly was pretty good. I really liked his waiter.

When does Maggie leave? She was my first and favorite Maureen.

I would love to see her do that!
