My sister, Jenn (who is kind enough to create and maintain this website) thought it might be a good idea to start this blog. It sounded like a good way to keep in touch with my friends and family while I'm busy on the road, and also a fun way to reach out to all of the amazing RENT fans.
After 2 weeks rehearsing in NYC the 12 new cast members headed off to Melbourne, FL to meet up with the folks who have been in the show for a while. They recieved us with amazing gusto, and it already feels like we're a big family. I couldn't hope for a more talented cast, or a better group of people to be spending the next 9 months with.
In Melbourne I woke up early one morning and sat out on the beach. Sitting there with the ocean at my feet, I realized how lucky I am to be with this specific group, spreading this message across the states. I feel honored to be the catalyst to Jonathan Larson's message of living for love. I am incredibly fortunate to be doing what I love while spreading such a profound and important meassage.
I'm so greatful for the all the lovers of RENT who know just as well as I the importance of what we do. So far every audience we've experienced has had such a supportive and encouraging energy. We can really feel that up on stage, and we feed off that energy. It's part of what makes RENT so exciting to share.
Keep checking out this site for updates and RENT news. I'm really excited to share my experiences with you!
