I have to say, I'm slightly shocked by the two stops in North Carolina. Who did North Carolina sleep with?
Lots of colleges maybe? Usually Rent does well in college towns.

Does anyone know if this tour will be Equity again? The last few have been non-Equity, but since Anthony and Adam ARE Eq I imagine they'd want to go out on a first-class tour, right?
Well if Adam and Anthony are in it, I believe it HAS to be Equity.
Per Anthony Rapp last night, the tour will be playing the Wang in Boston sometime next spring.
Woops, why did I say week?

LePetiteFromage,
Yes he will. He said "next spring" not "this spring".
winter_sky, I had written next week. That's why LePetiteFromage said that it was wrong. Mistake on my part.

You can add St. Louis to the cities.
The RENT tour with Adam and Anthony will be stopping in St. Louis
June 2-7, 2009
I'm starting to give up hope. I was informed earlier that they'd be coming to Indy, and I got so excited, and then I found out it wasn't true. And STILL there are no Chicago dates?
There are only like 6 dates announced. No need to get into a tizzy. They have dates scheduled for Jan- June - so there are plenty of dates to be announced. And the 2008-2009 season hasn't been announced for Broadway in Chicago.
I will remain in my tizzy. Thank you very much. lol Just kidding.
It sadly isn't coming to Seattle.
So I shall be driving down to Portland OR.
a long/short roadtrip is always fun :)
June 9-14- Portland, OR
I know it is playing San Diego in March 2009, so....
Yeah, there are no San Francisco or Denver dates announced yet either, which is what I'm hoping for. Hopefully they will announce a full schedule soon, but I bet they will wait a while, seeing as how they don't even know who the rest of the cast will be yet. (Not that that really has anything to do with when the dates should be announced). Just saying...
I would be surprised if there is an SF announcement soon - but I'm sure it'll play here. It's perfect at the Golden Gate (Coincidentaly you can see the Golden Gate in the Rent Film, if you look close - Evita is on the Marquee)
Hell- the Golden Gate Box office is still remodeled for Rent from when the Angel tour was supposed to become a sit-down.
SHN tends to not announce shows until it is closer unless they are part of the season - so look for holes in the schedule where SF would fit, and it's a pretty safe bet.
Where can one find the dates for the tour?
