    EPE presents award-winning musical ‘Rent’ at PiM Arts High in July

    EPLN Staff ReportsBy EPLN Staff ReportsJune 16, 2023Updated:June 17, 20232 Mins Read

    Featuring up-and-coming young Twin Cities theater professionals, Emerging Professionals Ensemble (EPE) will present Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical “Rent” at the Performing Institute of Minnesota Arts High School (PiM Arts High) in Eden Prairie next month.

    Shows will be at 8 p.m. on July 20 to 22 and July 27 to 29 at the high school, 7255 Flying Cloud Drive. Tickets, which cost $25 for general admission, can be purchased here.

    Jonathan Larson’s musical, which made its Broadway debut in 1996 at the Nederlander Theatre, follows a year in the life of a group of young artists and musicians struggling to survive and create in New York’s Lower East Side, under the shadow of HIV/AIDS.

    EPE described the production as “an explosive, modern display of ‘Rent’” featuring “the area’s most-talented 16-24-year-old performers,” according to a press release.

    Rachel Brady, co-founder of EPE, said, “It is so exciting to be making live theatre with these amazingly talented young performers.

    “This show says so much about the human spirit and how we strive to be more than the expectations put upon us by our families, society, and ourselves. ‘Rent’ makes us look at what we hold on to and what is ultimately the ‘life worth living.'”

    More information is available on EPE’s website.
