Thanks, Cedar Rapids! Our remaining performances of RENT are sold out. All remaining usher spots are also filled.
If you don’t already have a ticket, though, there’s still a way to catch the show before RENT closes July 31: Super rush tickets. We promised weeks ago that we’d always make 21 seats in the front row available for $5 each the night of each show, even if the rest of the performance was sold out. We’re keeping our word!
Before each show from 5:30 to 6:30, enter your name in the lottery. At 6:45, we’ll start drawing names; each person we draw gets to buy up to 2 tickets for $5 each until they’re gone. Good luck! For questions or more info, call 366-8591.

“RENT” Broadway star Anthony Rapp answers a question from the stage at TCR.
TCR had a special visitor this weekend: Anthony Rapp, who originated the leading role of Mark in RENT in the première workshop production, on Broadway, in the 2005 film and the 2009 national tour.
Mr. Rapp attended the sold-out Saturday, July 24 performance of RENT at TCR, and commented that the production was “one of the best.” He also gave a post-show talkback, taking questions from the audience.
