DETROIT SHOUT-OUT FROM GWEN STEWART

Hey all you RENT fans out there in Motor City. This is GWEN STEWART original cast member of RENT!! Get your tix cause RENT is coming to town!! We just finished a great run in NJ and are heading to Detroit today. I've never been to or performed in MI/Detroit so I'm excited to see what the city has to offer us weary travelers. Can't wait to see you guys at the Opera House. VIVA LA VIE BOHEME!!!

Very excited to see the show again in Detroit. Saw the show opening weekend in Cleveland. My mom is also excited to see the show for her first time. Can't wait to let her into the world of RENT. Best wishes for you and the cast.

Sad to hear that Detriot won't get to see Adam Pascal play Roger on stage. :( Best wishes to Adam for a speedy recovery so that he may rejoin the tour soon.

Hi Gwen, Adam, Anthony, and the entire cast and crew of Rent!

I am a member on the FriendsofRent site and we have been wondering if there will a dvd of the Broadway Tour? I know Lexi has a video on her site singing Out Tonight, which makes me think that at one point the show may have been filmed?? It would make your fans weep with joy if this were to happen! Please keep it in mind. Love you guys your the best. Keep up the great work and know that we appreciate every performance!

I Am so excited to see the show tomorrow! Don't let the cold air fool you, we're very warm people! Saw RENT last year and can't wait to see you again tomorrow. I know it will be amazing.

I saw the opening night show in Detroit and was blown away. Everyone did such an amazing job, I wish I could have gotten the chance to tell all of you fine performers in person what inspirations you are to me. I was heartbroken to hear that Adam Pascal wouldn’t be making the Detroit trip, he has always been one of the highlights for me personally, but Cary Shields was an excellent understudy. Continue the magic and I wish you the best of success. Come back around soon!!

Not trying to make you all feel old (we're older) ... but we (my wife and I) saw you perform Rent on Broadway the summer of 96 when our twin daughters were 1 y.o. and tonite, in Detroit, we brought them to see it for their first time (our 6th) now that they are 14. They were blown away and are now completely hooked. Thank you all for a wonderful performance. Moo!
