Original cast members and a bevy of special guests will revive the Tony Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning rock musical sensation Rent in a gala concert celebration for the show’s 30th anniversary. The one-night-only concert of the full show will take place on Monday, October 26, at Broadway’s Richard Rodgers Theatre and VAMP is going to stream it at Red Light Studio. So bring a comfy chair or blanket, we will sell popcorn and sodas. Best of all- no side eyes for singing along. The live event is a fundraiser for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, streaming costs go to the same organization. VAMP is paying for the streaming ticket and we will pass a hat for KC CARE. Show starts at 7:00 CST.
