I loved the movie and stage play so much that I wanted to get the book. After reading through it, I found that I didn't catch half of the cool things that were said!
my daughter loved this gift and was at the top of her list for xmas gifts. She got this along with broadway dvd of Rent and a book by the writer of Rent. She has already finished the book, said it was heartwarming and sooooo interesting. great investment.
This book is AWESOME!!!! I've always prided myself in having just about the whole play memorized and I was right! There were a few gems that this helped me to clarify. I am so glad I finally bought this!
We ordered this book for our son for Christmas because he had been in a local production of RENT. We tried endlessly to find the scipt, and this was recommended. My son absolutely loves it ~ he would have it framed if he could.
i have always loved rent, have seen several different productions in several languages, and can mentally watch those productions as i read the play. (i also own a copy of the play in german, which has helped my language skills immensely, to say nothing of my german vocabulary!)it is such a sad story, and yet evokes such happiness and love that it can't really be called a sad play. i think the saddest part of it is that jonathan larsen did not live to see the first performance, the tremendous world-wide success of his work, or to accept his pulitzer. it is one of the few works that transcends any performance and any medium.
Excellent book!! I have the dvd of the closing cast on Broadway and it is very easy to miss what is being said. This book will help understand the characters better and catch any dialog I may have missed.
My grandaughter was so happy to get this book. She had seen this stage play in NYC, and now can look back on it through this book. Great gift for those so completely into musical stage plays.
Although we have the movie, it is great to have the words to follow along to get a better understanding to the message that Jonathan Larson is sending!! Excellent in every way!!
