Swamp Rat Experience proudly presented the iconic Broadway show RENT by Jonathan Larson on November 16-18, 2023 at Keyano Theatre.
RENT takes place in the late 1980s and early 1990s, where you will follow a group of friends in Manhattan’s East Village who fight to build the lives of their dreams. RENT resonates with anyone who’s ever struggled with life, love and everything in between. This rock opera pulls the heartstrings to tell the tale of a group of friends who grapple with addiction, eviction, sexual identity, parents, materialism and the yearning to leave a meaningful legacy.
RENT was made possible by generous funding support by the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo and Brooklyn Sponsors Coldwell Banker United, Stratford Contracting Ltd., Inter Pipeline, TD Bank, Paul Davis Fort McMurray, Supporting Sponsors LaPraire Cranes, SMS Equipment, Balanced Numbers/YMM Offices, and In-Kind Sponsors Mix 103.7, 100.5 Cruz FM, Staples, Moccasin Media, Outside Optix Media, Twisted Gears Studios, RachelSierra Photography, and Blow Up Your Birthday.
