Set at the dawn of the Great Recession, this vaudevillian romp asks the question, "Does humanity have an expiration date?" While six hungry urbanites scramble for sustenance and cook up schemes for love and success, the beasts of agribusiness close in bringing of corruption and consumption. This provocative play looks at American enterprise and ingenuity at the beginning of the Obama age and wonders if there really is a viable alternative to capitalism. Sarah Marshall stars as the anthropomorphic "Big Hog," the ultimate capitalist underdog, along with Danny Escobar, Naomi Jacobson and an award-winning Washington cast. Learn More

I have already recommended Goldstar service to several friends. As for RENT, we are fans of the show and this was the first time we took our 12 year daughter along to see a performance. She was thrilled. I wish we had arranged for closer seating, but the mezzanine tickets fit our budget this summer! ThanksWritten on Jul 24 2006

I enjoyed the event; but the sound could have been better managed. The singers had to compete with the band, and often it was hard to hear the words to the song over the music. On occassion, the mikes gave out. That was disappointing.Written on Jul 24 2006

I was very disappointed in the production. First of all the Pantages changed my seats from Orchestra to Mezz claiming that the seats were comparable, but they were clearly not. We had an extremely difficult time hearing from that area. Other attendees agreed that the sound system was faulty. There was much buzzing and at times, dead air. I was really sorry about this because I have seen the show 4 times previously and I took my son this time because I loved it so much. Thank goodness he had heard the music and words before. If he hadn't he would not have known what was going on,. I don't think I will be buying tickets to a production at the Pantages again.Written on Jul 20 2006

Description
The Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning landmark American musical RENT, written by Jonathan Larson and directed by Michael Greif, makes its Pantages Theatre premiere! Inspired by Puccini’s La Boheme, RENT is a joyous, breathtaking and often bittersweet musical that celebrates a community of artists as they struggle with the soaring hopes and tough realities of today’s world. RENT, considered by many the most exuberant and original American musical to come along in a decade, has single-handedly reinvigorated Broadway and is taking the country by storm. Sweeping all major theater awards, including the 1996 Tony Award for Best Musical as well as the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, RENT captures the heart and spirit of a generation.
