i don't like most of the rent live changes but this is something I think about quite a bit tbh. by the end of 1992 all that will be left of angel is mark's videos of her. maybe all that's left of mimi, too, depending on how long she lives after tge end of the show. by the end of 1993 there's a pretty good chance that all that'll be left of collins and roger will be mark's videos too.

Can't wait to watch my favourite Christmas movie: Rent (2005)

[thisnerdjason]

Mark Cohen is just a silly little man, I will accept no other opinions

[therealamperssand]

their friendship is so important to me

[spogo1]

oh my god I'm watching la boheme for the first time and guys it is LITERALLY rent. like I knew rent was based off of it but I didn't think they were this close, it's the same story and the same characters. a line that should have been in rent:

mark: roger I'd like to share a profound thought of mine: it's fucking cold!

roger: I won't lie mark, I'm not exactly sweating either

also rodolfo and mimi are so sweet oh my god 🥺

Musicals where the female love interest (?) wants to get nasty more than the male lead: A Collection™️

1) Jesus Christ Superstar: You all saw this coming. Judas also wants to fuck, but that’s beside the point

2) Death Note: Light had himself a big titty goth girl, and he didn’t even want her 🥺😢

3) Hamilton: Okay well he did come around eventually 💀

4) Sweeney Todd: I missed the rumpled bedsheets line at first, but now it haunts me every time 😱

5) Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat: She was beautiful but eeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil 😈

6) Heathers: She wanted it so bad she tore the mattress.. ���

7) Rent: I don’t know much about this musical, but just from looking at them I can tell Mimi really wants Roger Jr. 😏 wow I really hate that I just said that 🤦🏻‍♀️

[After Mimi comes back to life]

Roger: I learned some very valuable lessons from this.

Mark: I’m guessing they are all horrible distortions of the lessons you actually should’ve taken away.

Roger: Death isn’t real, and I’m basically God.

525,600 minutes ago at this very moment, my life was literally changed forever. one year ago, the curtain raised and tune up #1 from Rent began in the theatre. I had been going thru a very rough time, so in many ways it feels like this show, Rent, has saved me. so thanks jonathan larson and to that entire first cast i saw who will always hold a special place in my heart
