Rent

I was not sure what to write about this musical, but after reading other people's posts I realized that many people had the same problem that I did. I do not really know what to think about his story. I have a hard time with any musical being classified as realism. How realistic is it when all of hte character spontaneouldy break out into song and all happen to know the words? However, I do think that they musical carried a very powerful message of hope with it. These characters while facing a terrible disease such as AIDS still have a remarkably positive outlook on life.
