'RENT' 2025

For over a quarter of a century, Jonathan Larson’s "RENT" has inspired us to choose love over fear and to live without regret. This Tony Award® and Pulitzer Prize-winning phenomenon follows a year in the lives of a diverse group of artists and friends struggling to follow their dreams without selling out. It has become more than a musical – it’s a cultural touchstone, a rite of passage and a source of joy and strength for millions. "RENT" has become a part of us forever. Whether you’ve never seen "RENT" or have completely lost count, you can’t miss it this time around – presented in New Village Arts’ intimate theatre in the heart of Carlsbad Village.
