One of the longest-running Broadway shows of all time comes to the 5th Avenue Theatre in this new production of Jonathan Larson's Tony Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Rent, a rock 'n' roll reimagining of Puccini's classic opera La Bohème. Rent tells the story of a group of down-and-out artists and musicians living in New York's East Village at the dawn of the new millennium, struggling to create their art while dealing with substance abuse, poverty, myriad existential dilemmas and the onset of the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Directed by two-time Seattle Times Footlight Award winner Bill Berry and starring a cast of young, up-and-coming Seattleites, the tragicomic rock opera features a number of memorable musical numbers including "Seasons of Love," "La Vie Bohème" and the titular "Rent."

The 5th Avenue Theatre presents Gilbert and Sullivan's beloved The Pirates of Penzance. This comic musical tells the story of Frederic, a boy mistakenly apprenticed to a soft-hearted band of pirates (his hard-of-hearing nurse was told to take him to a ship's pilot). When his apprenticeship is finally over, he leaves the pirate ship and promptly falls in love with a Major-General's daughter. Just as he starts planning for a law-abiding future, the pirates return to inform him that since his birthday falls on Leap Day, he still has another 63 years of pirate apprenticeship left. The score features many of Gilbert and Sullivan's wittiest and most engaging tunes, including the immortal "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General." Learn More

    It's a theatre performance -- please don't wear shorts and t-shirts!

    Take the bus if you can. Otherwise, Pacific Place is relatively economical.

It was a really good show. I wasn't familiar with a lot of the music, but I very much enjoyed it. A very good cast of performers, strong singers, dancers, and actors.

This was my fourth time attending "Rent" (including once on Broadway), and I enjoyed this re-vamped production very much!
