Well, since I've already seen it and bought tix to go see it again ;)

I lurve Rent. I really enjoyed Spamalot too, but not enough to feel the need to see it again unless it's got Frank N Furter in it.

Rent basically centers around 7 friends. Some are HIV positive. Some are gay. All are poor. There's Benny the evil capitalist as the antagonist. There's kick ass music. There's tears and laughter and a great cast album. It's about friendship and relationships and struggles and joy... It's about 525,600 minutes.... a year in the life of these people, though mostly centered around the end bits of each year... Roger's the musician, Mark's the aspiring filmmaker, Mimi is... ummm, well, she's Mimi... Angel lives up to her name, Collins is a professor... Maureen is a drama queen, Joanne is a legal aid lawyer... You know, reading back over this, it's the bare bones of the show but... well, i can tell you what it's about but i can't explain the emotion....
