Rent @Campbelltown
Sun, 12 Feb 2006, 04:30 pmHeaded out to Campbelltown fri night as I read they were doing my fave show of all time, RENT!, nervous and excited to see what they had done with Larsen's brilliance... Not only did they far surpass two previous productions of RENT! I have seen recently, but made me laugh, cry and moo! They didn't just play roles, they appeared to be LIVING them... Voices were varied, but beautiful, raw and passionate, relationships unfolded before and I actually believed them - Maureen and Joanne were just perfect, not butch and sterotypical, angel and Collins ripped my heart apart and Roger and Mimi burned me! The ensemble came together tightly, voices meshed in hot harmonies which tingled the spine... all up a fantastic performance! No day but today!

I completely agree. I'm a big fan of the show and I saw it on Saturday night. I think there was an understudy doing Maureen's role, but she didn't let my expectations down at all. It was hilarious. She had me mooing and laughing my head off when she forgot that line, no one in the audience could tell if she was supposed to do that, but if not, that was one hell of a save. The cast was great together - you could tell there were really strong vibes so when they sang as a whole, it took my breath away. I recommend for everyone to come see it! Its a shame that they're not doing what Penrith is doing - they should have done it instead if you ask me - and travel round to different suburbs.
They don't belong in Campbelltown, bring on Star City!!
