Enjoy RENT Live at New Village Arts!
One of the most important (and most thrilling) musicals of modern times, RENT follows a group of friends in NYC as they navigate the challenges of various romances, the AIDS crisis and yes, rent prices in the City. Produced in collaboration with Diversionary Theatre (who will do their own production of RENT in late Spring 2026!), this show welcomes Kym Pappas back as director after her amazing productions of THE HALF-LIFE OF MARIE CURIE and FUN HOME. At the end, everything comes back to LOVE, and NVA is proud to finally produce this unforgettable show. An exciting & powerful collaboration...
