"Rent" @ CSULA

We attended a performance of "Rent" at Cal State L.A. over the weekend.  I was extremely impressed with the cast, band, stage design, lighting and overall professionalism of this production.  CSULA is known as a commuter school, also as a continuing education college  for professionals seeking advanced degrees.  Hence, the cast and crew ranged in age from 19 to 50....just like real life.

Larry and I were motivated to attend because my ukulele teacher, Jon Lee, was one of the leads, "Roger."  I'm really glad we saw this production.  I knew the story, but had never seen a stage production or the movie of "Rent."

The show runs November 18, 19, 20 & 22 at 7:30, with a matinee on November 15th at 2:30.  Here's the Link for tickets.

Note to self:  See more college productions in L.A.  These kids really work hard, are talented and the cost of a ticket is refreshing!
