    I read an articale earlier today on MSNBC that RENT will be running it's last show in June (I can't find the article now).

    RENT is the 7th longest running Broadway musical and has help to spread awarness of many issues plaguing the homosexual community, mainly AIDS.

    I'm sad :frowning2:

    You should see it if it's your last chance. Of course in 10 or 20 years they'll restage it and of course there will always be touring and more regional/local productions, I'm sure.

    Okay, I'm going in March! I can't wait, but i'm still so sad. If I ever have kids, they can never see it. I want to be Mark in the revival cast though!
