2015 - RENT
“Director’s Note:
...In a way, RENT is something a long time coming for WST. It was always my thought throughout my time here that this show embodies much of the rebellious spirit on which this company was founded upon 50 years ago. Starting as a group of kids that wanted to make their own art, independently and regardless of what any authority had to say about whether or not they could. I know that it resonates with me in my youthful fury, but the spirit of this company has apparently resonated with our audiences as well, as we find ourselves here, seated over 50 years after that fateful performance of Bye, Bye, Birdie that would kick-start half a century’s worth of heritage and tradition...”
