RENT Hits the Stage in Edmonton May 3-10, 2024

Elope Musical Theatre is bringing RENT to the stage May 3-10, 2024 at Westbury Theatre for a limited run of only seven shows in Edmonton. Tickets start at $25 and it’s a must-see theatre date for your next show experience in Edmonton.

ELOPE Musical Theatre is a not-for-profit society who have been producing musical theatre in Edmonton for over 40 years. They welcome all individuals who are passionate about musical theatre, regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or ability. 

Join ELOPE for one of Broadway’s most popular and powerful shows! Loosely based on Puccini’s La Boheme, RENT! tells the story of a group of impoverished young artists struggling to survive and create a life in Lower Manhattan’s East Village. The production is set during the thriving days of the bohemian culture of Alphabet City, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.

The musical was first seen in a workshop production at New York Theatre Workshop in 1993. Music, lyrics and book were all written by Jonathan Larson.
