Musical Filmed Live On Broadway [Edizione: Regno Unito]

Here it is: the filmed version of the hit Broadway musical that touched millions. A modern spin on the opera LA BOHEME, RENT tells the story of eight friends dealing with life and love in Manhattan's Alphabet City in 1989. Over the course of a year, the friends face poverty, drug addiction, break-ups, reconciliations, eviction, and AIDS. Despite these challenges, they find support, hope, and acceptance in each other, all the while embracing the bohemian lifestyle that was so much a part of the Lower East Side. RENT is an exuberant rock-&-roll musical with the underlying message that love can prevail despite all odds and that, ultimately, there really is no day but today. Captured in high-definition, this release of the stage production makes it possible to revisit the beloved musical even when it isn't gracing Broadway.
