After opening in a small Off-Broadway theater ÊRentÊ a modern adaptation of Puccini's ÊLa Boh¬meÊ quickly became a worldwide phenomenon with a more zealous and devoted fan base than had any musical in history. ÊRent FAQÊ includes biographical info on the musical's brilliant creator Jonathan Larson who tragically passed away at age 35 the night before the show began preview performances. Other chapters focus on the creative team and original cast; the development of the script and score from early drafts and workshop performances to the version we know and love today; the movie version tours and much more. The section ÊRentÊ Cultural Literacy is a guide to all the titles and real people referenced in the show and the East Village and Alphabet City locations that ÊRentÊ helped make famous; another chapter provides clues to the characters and tips for anyone thinking about auditioning for the musical or putting on a production! A final chapter provides a rundown with numerous photos of revivals and local productions all over the country including regional community and dinner theaters and high school and college versions. ÊRent FAQÊ is a treasure trove of information background and fun facts for the show's devotees as well as anyone who might be lucky enough to be discovering the musical for the first time!
