RENT School Edition at Central Bucks High School West
Winner of the 2022 Philadelphia Independence Award for Best Musical (Amélie), the Central Bucks High School West Harlequin Club is proud to present Rent School Edition November 17-20, 2022. Rent School Edition, with music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson, opened off-Broadway in January 1996 and three months later went to Broadway for the start of its twelve year run. Tragically, Larson died the night before Rent premiered off Broadway so was never able to see the show’s success and how its themes of love, acceptance, and living in the moment resonated with audiences. RENT won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Musical.
Rent School Edition is playing at Central Bucks High School West, 375 West Court Street Doylestown, PA 18901 and runs Thursday November 17th through Sunday November 20th. Curtain time is 7:00pm Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and there is a 2:00 matinee on Sunday. The ticket link can be found at www.cbsd.org/harlequinclub. Adults $15. Children/Seniors $10. Cash or check only at the door.
Set in the East Village of New York City, Rent School Edition is about falling in love, finding your voice and living for today. Winner of the 1996 Tony Award for Best Musical and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, it has become a pop cultural phenomenon with songs that rock and a story that resonates with audiences of all ages. Based loosely on Puccini’s La Boheme, Rent School Edition follows a year in the life of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York’s Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.
