The new rent tour going out is most definitely not going to be equity.

Let us hope that this tour will not shame the good name of Jonathan!

I saw the tour cast in May and they were terrific. Harley Jay was a great "Mark" and we all loved Jen Colby Talton as "Mimi" and Michael Ifill as "Benny".

I just hope the tour makes it somewhere near me this time around. If I have to see another Mamma Mia or Phantom billboard around town, I'm not going to be a happy girl...

I saw the tour cast in April, and then a week later saw it on Broadway. The tour cast gave a better show. That was almost solely Antonique Smith's fault, but it didn't help that Christopher J. Hanke had skipped his speech therapy or broken his grill, or whatever was wrong with him that night.

So I was satisfied with the last tour. If the next tour comes to my town again I'll be sure to buy tickets to that.

Yeah I found out last week that it will be in Houston in November. I'll be there!
I saw the last touring cast in Richardson, TX, soon after they started touring. Since it was so close to the beginning of the tour, the energy was through the roof! I'm hoping it will be like that again since the new tour starts in October.

Actors' Equity Association ("AEA" or "Equity"), founded in 1913, is the labor union that represents more than 45,000 Actors and Stage Managers in the United States. Equity seeks to advance, promote and foster the art of live theatre as an essential component of our society. Equity negotiates wages and working conditions and provides a wide range of benefits, including health and pension plans, for its members. Actors' Equity is a member of the AFL-CIO, and is affiliated with FIA, an international organization of performing arts unions.
