Rent's final performance on Broadway.
Rent Filmed Live in Broadway es el resultado de la grabación, con cámaras de alta definición, de la última función de Rent en Broadway. Proyectada en Septiembre de 2008 en algunos cines de Estados Unidos y Canadá, aquellos que pudieron asistir a dichas proyecciones manifestaron que la experiencia de ver "Rent" en alta definición fue tan asombrosa que daba la sensación de estar ahí mismo, en el escenario, con los artistas. Rent es un musical compuesto por Jonathan Larson, que falleció a causa de un aneurisma de aorta la víspera al estreno de su obra. Ganó 4 Premios Tony y el Premio Pulitzer. Se estrenó en Nueva York el 29 de abril de 1996 en el Nederlander Theatre, donde continúa como el septimo show con más representaciones en Broadway. Inspirado en la ópera "La Bohème" de Puccini, el musical se centra en un año en la vida de un grupo de jóvenes artistas y músicos tratando de sobrevivir en el Nueva York de principios de la década de los 90's, bajo la sombra del SIDA.
