Don't "Rent"this book --- Buy It!!!!!!!!!! April 9, 1998
As a longtime thespian and theater-lover, I was in line for this book before the store even opened. I loved it so much that I am giving it to all my friends as gifts. The authors give a full account of the entire process of creating this masterpiece and the "interview" format allows for first hand information from all those that participated. The best theater book ever written!!!!!
Deep Insight Into the World of RENT December 29, 1997
This book really gave me an understanding of what the actors had to go through to become a part of the amazing show, RENT. It showed the struggles that Jonathon Larson went through to create such an impact on the world. This book has given me another chance to realize what an extrodinary musical RENT is! I have not yet seen the play, but i already can tell from listening to the CD and reading this book that it will have a major impact on me. This is not just any plain book. It has beautiful pictures and indepth insights into each and every person who was a part of RENT. You truely can not comprehend the feeling of RENT until you read this book. - R. Fisher
No day but today! November 23, 1997
Attention "Rentheads"! You must buy this book! This is an excellent book, I could not put it down! This book tells the story of Jonathan Larson's life as told by the people that loved him the most, his family and friends. This also takes you through the journey of the greatest musical ever to be created. Jonathan Larson is a creative genius who lives by one rule, live each day to the fullest....No day but today!!
A must have for any Rent fan! November 5, 1997
The pictures are dazzling and full of life. The words tell us everything behind the musical Rent! With insides from the cast and crew of Broadway's Rent, and comments from Jon Larson's family. It takes you inside the best American musical of all time. An incredible book, no one who likes Rent should be left without. Buy It!!!
La Vie Boeheme! October 24, 1997
Of all all the Broadway "coffee table" books, RENT ranks first. The background on Jonathan Larson provided so much more perspective than I had ever imagined.As a teacher, I have used the RENT book in my classroom, and have had all of my classes singing and dancing to "Seasons of Love."As an adolescent of the 60's, and a young adult in the 70's, HAIR and A CHORUS LINE were the most important theatrical memories of my life. As I approached middle age over night, and just when I had been losing faith in the musical theatre of the late 20th Century, RENT came along, and provided me with not only hope, but with a renewal of my own life.The photographs are as vivid and as passionate as sitting in the Nederlander Theatre.The RENT book will be a salient addition to my library, and I will continue to celebrate "La Vie Boeheme!"
