I would just like to let all the people living in NYC know that I hate you a bit.

you pay 2000 a month for a crappy one bedroom and then complain about not living in nyc... i guess the over priced RENT has its RENT benefits :)

Slightly in jest; I don't own a camcorder. I'm going to try to borrow one.

MAke it digital...and you can put it onthe computer....oooo

That's totally exciting. But I wonder why they are performing on the TODAY show so far in advance of the movie's release date? Doesn't that seem unusual?

meh. My digital camera shoots video, but it's without sound. Maybe I can borrow my parents digital. I've got time to beg.

bwayfan3, I guess they'll just have to be on AGAIN later

[Thenardier]

Posted: 7/14/05 at 5:16pm

Mine does video - I don't think it does sound though

According to the Broadway in Bryant Park schedule, Aug. 4 is the day devoted to dance and the Dancers Responding to Aids program. I wonder how it will all come together with the RENT cast?

And, here's another thought I had earlier today. I am assuming there is no ensemble in the film ( i mean in terms of singing), so the soundtrack album will be just the eight principals??

I'm pretty sure there's an ensemble. The Access Hollywood footage of La Vie Boheme indicated that there was an ensemble (possibly even larger than in the stage production) involved. Life Support and Rent would necessarily involve the ensemble. I don't know what's going on with Another Day... I hope the ensemble isn't Angel, Mark and Collins staging a coup against Roger along with Mimi...

I guess I didn't mean within the entire movie. I wasn't totally clear. I'll admit to only having seen RENT once in the theatre a few years ago, so I don't have as much knowledge to pull from. But for example, doesn't the whole ensemble come out for the finale? That might be awkward on film and would probably involve only the main characters. Although, I am not filmmaker and there are probably always ways to surprise a movie audience

OH. MY. GOD. I want to go to this SOOOOOOOOOOOO badly. I'm actually still in NYC on that date, but I am working. Maybe I can work something out. How long do these things usually last?

[WickedOne2]

Posted: 7/14/05 at 7:00pm

That sucks, I won't be in NYC until August 16.... I am sooo pissed.

wow! i can't even express my excitement! how early do you think we'll have to get there for a decent seat? it's going to crazy! - but aaaaah!

(don't kill me for asking, i know it shouldn't matter, but do you think this will precede the previously scheduled dancers responding to aids? i was looking forward to that as well.)

My best friend went to Juilliard with Tracie - I told her she better go and get reconnected and introduced to the cast if possible!

[bwayfan3]

I have a feeling that the RENT performance will be connected with the Dancers Responding to AIDS piece.

Deng it! This is when it stinks to be living in California. I so wish I could go. This sounds awesome.

[dancingthrulife04]

Posted: 7/14/05 at 8:18pm

I will absolutely be there.

OMG! AHHHHH! ARGH...why do I have a camp job. I must take off! For the sake of RENT! o_0 Adamn Pascal...Idina Menzel...*faints* Give me a number...Crazy Idina Fan Girl #1! Present. Hrrrrrm...maybe I should learn how the video feature works on my camera...

[bwayfan3]

Posted: 7/14/05 at 8:24pm

Do we really think all of them will be there? I mean all 8? That would be awesome. I guess it's highly possible since they have TOday show earlier in the day, and they're probably going to want as much press as possible.
