Rent Tickets

Sound system was too loud. At times you could not understand the words being sung.

I saw Rent 20 years ago when it first came out and it was spectacular. While I enjoyed this 2017 show since the music is so good, I was disappointed in the quality of the voices. The cast was second rate and the voices were not as strong as they should have been. Aaron Alcaraz and Sammy Ferber stood out as superior to the rest. Lyndie Moe who played Maureen ruined "Over the Moon" by taking an already exaggerated spoof and exaggerating 10X more. Awful.

I had never seen Rent before, and was excited to go. We had good seats - Row N on the main floor. That said, the sound system was so horrible, or so badly adjusted for the generally terrible acoustics in Centennial Hall, that we had two problems. None of us could understand the lyrics - maybe that is partly the singers, but we think it's mostly acoustics. AND there were times when the louder music literally hurt our ears! What a shame. So, while I was able, with great concentration, to figure out most of what was going on, I don't think it should be that much work. And this experience sort of reinforces our decision this year not to renew our subscription to Broadway in Tucson. It just doesn't work in Centennial Hall.

Best Broadway in Tucson yet. Great production, fantastic cast, incredible set. It keeps getting better. Thank you!

RENT is amazing wherever you see it, but this venue was beautiful and our seats were phenomenal!

The acoustics were bad during the performance My wife and I walked out during the second half

Roger's character was overly done. Maureen's performance was bad. But let's remember, that this cast is a traveling one, and is not as experienced as the company performing in Broadway. If you went to Broadway shows, the traveling companies do not compared. Overall, grateful that they came to Tucson.

I had seen a production of Rent several years ago, so I was aware of the story line. I brought with me a younger person who was not. Much of the performance was spent in explanation of the social context of the play. Perhaps that is why I didn't find this group of actors very energetic and their voices for the most part not up to the standard i'm accustomed to hearing. If I hadn't brought a person with me to the performance I would not have stayed past intermission.

Rent is a fantastic musical, but it was ruined by the terrible acoustics at Centennial Hall. Unless it was a solo, you couldn’t decipher what the cast was singing. I overheard this complaint from many people as we left the show. What a shame. I won’t ever see another show here.

I had heard so much about this play and and I was so excited to see it . Big disappointment feel their is a lot of hype and more of just a following for it and it really didn't have much substance or quality to the play. The lyrics were hard to understand when they were singing. I noticed that a lot of people didn't return after the intermission also their were a lot of empty seats after the intermission. I have seen a lot of plays in my time I wouldn't recommend this one.

The multiple-scenes simultaneously didn't work. Very little idea what was going on. Mediocre music.
