The Newberry Community Players Present “Rent” at the Ritz Theater

The Newberry Community Players bring the famous production, “Rent” to the stage at the Historic Ritz Theater!

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, friends in Manhattan’s East Village struggle to build the lives of their dreams. Pennilessness, drug abuse, HIV/AIDS, social tension, and political unrest, among other hardships, challenge the group physically and emotionally. Facing the problems head on, they make personal self-discoveries and find what really matters most in life.
