'526,000 minutes . . .'
Yes, this Autumn Term MTS are bringing you Jonathan Larson's Tony Award-winning rock opera 'RENT'. Based on Puccini's opera 'La Boheme' RENT tells the story of a group of Bohemians living in New York City's East Village as they attempt to deal with the obstacles life throws at them. It's about very human relationships, friendships, and dramas, but also about celebrating life at the end of the 20th Century.
Larson and his friends were living, breathing modern day bohemians and more than anything RENT is a tribute to the lives he and his friends led. So let's honour the message he provides us with because there really is 'No Day But Today.'
