RENT presented by K-W Musical Productions

K-W Musical Productions (KWMP) proudly presents Jonathan Larson’s Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize-winning rock musical, RENT, at the Conrad Centre for the Performing Arts from December 3 to 12, 2026.

Set in New York City’s East Village during the HIV/AIDS crisis, RENT follows a group of young artists and friends navigating love, loss, friendship, and the challenges of staying true to themselves. With unforgettable songs including “Seasons of Love,” “La Vie Bohème,” and “Take Me or Leave Me,” this groundbreaking musical is a powerful celebration of community, connection, and living for today.

Brought to life by a talented cast of local performers and a dedicated volunteer-run theatre company, RENT promises a moving and memorable live theatre experience in the heart of Waterloo Region.

With nine performances across two weekends, including afternoon and evening shows, there’s plenty of opportunity to experience this beloved musical.
