Headed 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!

Whilst this forum is designed for all to have their say, comment or adjudicate on all things theatre. This string would undoubtebly be making history on this site. Funny Stuff !!

Please put it to sleep, kill it, bury the fucker what ever. If you all spent 1/8th of the time working on your craft and honing your talents as you have done gabbling on this forum, you might actually make your mark and acheive your goals rather just leaving a stain on the world. Its your life I guess, go for it!!!! Im starting to hate RENT. Jonathon Larson would turning in is grave, (all due respect), at the end of the day, who really cares and what does it matter, if you liked it great, if you hated it thats cool too...............................I'm sure that sadly this wont be the last of this, ho hum. All the best to all in your careers......
