RENT

Having seen this incredible show before, I was looking forward to seeing how it had developed since its first UK tour. Years later, the audience was still blown away by the sheer emotional power of ‘RENT’, following a young group of Bohemians as they fought for their rights to be heard. There were no weak cast members. Highlights included Lucie Jones as Maureen, Ross Hunter as Roger and the fiery Philippa Stefani as Mimi. But Harrison Clark as divine queen Angel was heavenly. His simple approach to the role was pure and intense equally, with the right amount of innocence.
