    Rent is the new Cats?

    I saw Rent in London, with the original NY cast, and couldn't get out of the theatre fast enough. Rent and Cats are the reason I tell people I hate musicals, just in case they are about to invite me to one. It isn't true, of course. I love some musicals on stage, hate almost all at the cinema.
