Episode 198: RENT (Almost) Live on FOX Discussion

It’s our discussion on the latest in the series of FOX TV’s live musicals, Jonathan Larson’s iconic rock opera, RENT!
Guest co-host Hunter joins me to talk about the history of the show, from the early performances, to the Broadway smash, the 2005 movie, and now the “almost” live production for television.

Here are the links to the two articles I referred to during our discussion:
