The rock musical, "Rent" is playing at the Weston Playhouse and receiving rave reviews. Great reviews are common at the Weston Playhouse and the comments for this play indicate that the cast and crew of "Rent" are giving a traditionally strong Weston performance.

Here are a few of those comments:

"It blew me away! I’ve been coming to the Playhouse for close to 20 years and this production goes to the top of my “fave” list."

"This was a wonderful show. A terrific cast, amazing voices, a fabulous set. You’ve got to see it…Go with an open mind and you’ll leave with an open heart. Well done all of you!"

"Came to the Sat. matinee and didn’t expect to be so overwhelmed by the show. First rate cast delivered a first class performance. The standing ovation was well deserved. How lucky we are to have such quality theater here -Broadway has nothing on Weston!"

"Rent" had a strong run off Broadway and later on Broadway where it won a Tony Award® for Best Musical.

The play continues through August 22 on the Playhouse Main Stage, Village Green, Weston VT

Note that the play has a rating of NC17 - Adult language, content, and brief nudity. It may not be appropriate for people under the age of 17.

Weston Playhouse productions often sell out so it's a good idea to get tickets in advance.

Weston Vt is also home to the Vermont Country Store, one Vermont's top shopping attractions. It's very close to the Playhouse, on the opposite side of Main Street.
