Phoenix Festival Theater Presents RENT

20 May 2026

Phoenix Festival Theater will present RENT June 5 and 6 at 7:30 PM, June 7 at 2 PM, June 12 at 7:30 PM, June 13 at 2 and 7:30 PM, and June 14 at 2 PM in the Chesapeake Theater located in the Chesapeake Welcome Center at Harford Community College. This production contains adult themes and strong language. It is intended for a mature audience.

Set in New York’s East Village, RENT is about love, self-expression, and living for today. Winner of the Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize, the musical has become a cultural phenomenon with rock-infused songs and a story that resonates across generations. Loosely based on Puccini’s La Bohème, Jonathan Larson’s work follows a year in the lives of struggling young artists facing love, loss, and the impact of HIV/AIDS. Their intertwined relationships, dreams, and conflicts form the heart of this groundbreaking musical.

RENT is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Tickets are $22. Purchase tickets at harfordevents.com, the Box Office in the Chesapeake Welcome Center, or call 443.412.2211.
