As described by Music Theatre International
... "Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer-prize winning Broadway musical based loosely on Puccini's opera La Bohème. It follows a year in the lives of seven friends living the disappearing Bohemian lifestyle in New York's East Village. AIDS and both its physical and emotional complications pervade the lives of Roger, Mimi, Tom, and Angel; Maureen deals with her chronic infidelity through performance art; her partner, Joanne, wonders if their relationship is worth the trouble; Benjamin has sold out his Bohemian ideals in exchange for a hefty income and is on the outs with his former friends; and Mark, an aspiring filmmaker, feels like an outsider to life in general, always behind the camera recording the events but never playing a part."

the performances ...
"Just saw RENT tonight with one of my daughters...one of our all time favorite shows...re tonight, what an amazing production (performances, music, set, direction/casting) by a very talented group of people! (I have seen RENT on Broadway, in Boston with Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal, and here in Keene at the Colonial; for me, this version holds its own...very impressed...WOW!)" ... from Kathy M.
"Thanks to Branch River Theatre I've got Rent Songs stuck in my head now and they won't leave!" ... Christy L.
"Wow - enjoyed your performance in RENT! It'll no doubt be one of the highlights of my summer! Good job Roger, I mean Aaron!" ... Jane R.
"I didn't get a chance to tell you in person tonight, but your performance was electrifying! You were Roger, and you made me (and many others) cry, laugh, and love tonight. Congratulations, Aaron!" ... " I'm bummed that I didn't get a chance to give you a huge hug after the show tonight, but there were just too many fans to fight through. Your performance as Angel is disarming and pure joy! You remind us all to live for today and most importantly celebrate love. You gave us all what we long for 'something as true as this'. Congratulations, Sean!" ... "You are incredible! Your production is perfection! Well done, Ms. Mead!!" ... "Tyler, you ROCKED my world! Incredible debut! BRAVO!" ... Tina M.
