sorry if this was posted before or something, i swear i searched around and couldn't find anything.
-My friend is going around saying she has tickets for rent this summer (i think may or june) and that it is also the closing night. That kinda startled me because i haven't heard anything about it closing, and i still can't find anything on it. So, i don't really believe her, but you never know. Can someone tell what the truth is? lol

Posted: 3/7/06 at 11:25pmIt would make no sense to close... but you scared me for a minute when I saw the topic on the board!

Posted: 3/7/06 at 11:33pmi think you can only buy tickets up until July, eventually more will go on sale, so maybe she just thought it was the final performance

Posted: 3/8/06 at 1:19amAs of now tickets are only on sale for Rent up until July. This does not mean that the show is closing. They release tickets in blocks. This is probably what is confusing your friends.

Héhé.
In the weeks after any announcement of RENT closing, this forum will just be wall-to-wall of various RENT threads. Helen Keller wouldn't be able to miss it!

Posted: 3/8/06 at 7:58amSince RENT draws a young audience, it would be foolish to close the show at the beginning of summer recess.

Posted: 3/8/06 at 11:08amRent was almost 99 percent full last week. Somehow, I think it will be sticking around for a while.

Posted: 3/8/06 at 11:08amHaha thanks ashley0139, I could use some of those pillows. But I think this thread gave me more of a headache than hitting my head on the wall!
