Rent

RENT is a rock opera with music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson based on Giacomo Puccini’s opera, La Bohème. It tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York’s Lower East Side in the thriving days of Bohemian Alphabet City. It illustrates the unforgettable story of a group of young artists learning to survive, falling in love, finding their voices and living for today.

RENT has changed Broadway forever and transformed how a generation feels about musical theatre and now, for the first time, it’s being performed in the West of Ireland. Whether it’s your 1st time or your 100th time, you won’t want to miss this production of RENT.
