A stirring rock and roll take on a group of struggling, young artists facing tough times on the streets of New York. The musical is now considered a modern-day classic among theatre critics and fans, the show has infused new life onto the Broadway musical scene, giving the musical a breath of fresh air (and a healthy dose of youthful rock and roll). It broke the mold and immediately started breaking records, and quickly racked up a collection of Tony Awards that marked the significant musical accomplishment. The moving drama is based on the classic 1896 opera, La Boheme by Giacomo Puccini. Rent follows the rich and heartbreaking stories of a cast of struggling young artists living in New York’s famed East Village. And struggle they do. The show deals with the very adult themes of homelessness, AIDS, and drug addiction. Despite the fact that these young artists are up against big odds, and big problems, they’ve got big hopes and big dreams to keep them going. The legendary musical has now been made into a big-screen version of the same name, causing there to be even more audience interest in Rent than has even been typical in the long history of the show’s sold-out ticket audiences.

Just walking through the doors of a Broadway legend like the Nederlander Theatre qualifies as a genuine New York City experience, let alone attending a show there. As anyone can tell you, you’ll always remember your first theater experience, and seeing a live Broadway musical, like Rent, is an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime. And if you’ve already seen a Broadway show yourself, then you know what we’re talking about. The Nederlander Theatre is one of the great venues on NY’s famed Broadway theatre scene, and Nederlander Theater has played host to some of the greatest shows in the history of NY Broadway productions. In New York City, Rent at The Nederlander Theatre has been met with critical praise and sold-out ticket audiences since the show’s opening night. One of the Great White Way’s all-time greats, The Nederlander Theatre has assured its place in the pantheon of distinguished Broadway venues, and, now, Rent will go down as part of the rich legacy of The Nederlander Theater.
