THE worldwide smash hit musical Rent is in Perth this November.

Starring Anthony Callea, Tim Campbell, Nikki Webster, Shane Jenek (Courtney Act) and Andrew Conaghan along with some of Perth’s finest musical theatre performers.

Directed by Chris Kabay with musical direction by Simon Holt, Rent provides a scorchingly hot modern take on Puccini’s La Boheme and is considered the greatest rock musical of modern times. This stirring musical centres on a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York City’s Bohemian East Village.

Rent has been the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the Obie Award, the New York Drama Critics Circle Award, four Tony Awards and three Drama Desk Awards and is one of the longest running Broadway musicals of all time.
