Title: "Rent" is Deeply Bent
Review: Although this musical makes some good points about life, liberty, etc., the overall effect rather lacks in luster. Try as I might, I simply couldn't see the so-called "Bohemian spirit". Most of the song lyrics are flighty, and the characters perplexing. The plot is weak and difficult to follow - there's a strangeness about the whole thing. Something key is missing; there's nothing to tie it all together. Plus, it's pointlessly, erratically depressing in parts. I would strongly suggest one forget to rent "Rent".
