RENT poster

Posted: 12/18/04 at 10:17pm

So I was at this Broadway store in NYC today and I wanted to buy the OBC poster of RENT, but I had to run for Beauty and the Beast before I could, and I have a question about it. Do they still sell the OBC online and stuff? Or is it now strictly new cast and I have to go back to that store for my OBc poster?

Which one did you go to, just out of curiousity? I haven't seen an OBC poster around in a while, save for one store in the City, but they're over $100. Ebay has them every so often, too.

http://broadwayposters.com/triton/frameset_mtor.htm Scroll down and you'll see RENT.

And as for the new cast, I've heard that they don't make posters anymore.

Be advised that Triton's is a photo reproduction.

Was there ever a version of tha poster that has the full credits on it?

It's a reproduction, and it's still relatively expensive, I believe. For the record, I got my Cabaret poster from them, and it's a reproduction. It's on thin paper, so I framed it to avoid damage, but it really looks great.

ETA - I don't think the OBC one ever listed the credits... or any of the RENT posters for that matter.
