This week has been a week of the old/younger me meets the new/older me and it's all been very cultural...new york style. Spice Girls on Monday, and RENT on Wednesday.
For those who are unaware RENT is going dark, i believe, in June. They leave here and are traveling around to ensure everyone gets a chance to hear an amazing soundtrack and see some great acting. Toronto is on that list of places visited.
When RENT first came out in Toronto it was crazy popular for high schoolers to go, get the cheap tickets and watch over and over again...that was not I as i was in boarding school, but I have seen it twice prior to my last Wednesday show and i just love it as much each and every time! The passion of friendship, family and the love between the couples, i could cry for Angel and Collins every time.
For those not able to see the play in the final days, the movie has all but two of the original RENT actors and while it's not the same i still liked it, heck i listen to the theatre soundtrack regularly to feel like i'm there!
Next on the cultural agenda...American Cup for gymnastics
