Overview

The WDL is thrilled to present the first Delaware production of this iconic rock n’ roll theatrical masterpiece! Inspired by Puccini’s opera La Boheme, RENT tells the story of eight young artists in New York’s Alphabet City as their lives become intertwined on Christmas Eve in the 1990s. For the next year, they share laughter, love, heartbreak, illness and death. A modern classic, RENT is about the resilience and strength that family can bring. 525,600 minutes…how do you measure a year? Note: RENT contains adult themes and language.

Seasons of Love Campaign

The Drama League is proud to announce the Seasons of Love Campaign – a way to honor and celebrate life while helping the Drama League and AIDS Delaware.

For our production of RENT, a large faux-brick wall will be featured as a major part of the set. For a minimum donation of only $10 or $15, we will write the name of a loved one who is living with, has succumbed to, or has been affected by AIDS, HIV, or any other disease on one of the bricks. The bricks will be visible throughout the run of the show, and your donated brick(s) will be yours to keep when the show ends in February. Your tax-deductible donation will benefit both the Wilmington Drama League and AIDS Delaware.
