RENT Bryant Park

Ok, so we all know that the cast of RENT will be at Bryant Park on August 4, but my big question is, what other shows will be there. I know Christopher Sieber is hosting, so maybe some Spamalot?!? If anyone knows anything just let me know!

um according to Broadway in Bryant Park's schedule Rent is supposed to be performing on July 21st. August 4th is Broadway Dances. (unless we are talking about different things?)

Broadway Dances (Dancing For Life last year) has been changed to Broadway for Life this year...the Rent movie cast will be performing Seasons of Love and Finale B. Last year, it was dance performances, from the casts of 42nd street, Wicked (with Idina), Movin' Out, and a performance from Karen Ziemba and others dancing to Heat Wave.

yankeefan where did you hear this? I was there last week and there was no mention of a change, as well as the website still says that it is broadway dances with Chris seiber hosting.

All he said was what was there that day last year. The RENT thing is listed as something called "Broadway for Life," and the Broadway in Bryant Park schedule lists some dance thing and then BC/EFA for the fourth.

luvtheemcee...WHAT?

broadway in bryant parks schedule has broadway dances for Auguts 4th.

as for what yankee said. I'm still confused where he heard that broadway dances has a changed name and that rent the movie is performing: "Broadway Dances (Dancing For Life last year) has been changed to Broadway for Life this year...the Rent movie cast will be performing Seasons of Love and Finale B."

Which is what I was asking about in my last post.

argh, nevermind. I think it's all technicalities.

Last year, the same concert took place. Broadway Dances for Life was performed last year on two separate days. This year, rather than having "Broadway Dances for Life" the title has been changed to "Broadway for Life" and will include the Rent movie cast performing, all hosted by Chris Seiber. It's on broadway cares' website, as well as many a thread around here.

thank you yankee fan

that is odd because according to bryant parks website it is called broadway dances and features dance numbers from different shows on broadway. Hence why I was asking for clarification.

Thanks.
