Exclusive 'Rent: Filmed Live on Broadway' Trailer

Forget regret ... and catch the final performance of 'Rent' on Broadway.

Back in 1994, a little rock musical based on 'La Boheme,' starring a bunch of unknowns, opened at the New York Theater Workshop. In 1996, it moved to Broadway.

Twelve years, a Tony Award and a Pulitzer Prize later -- not to mention immense fame for original cast members like Jesse L. Martin and Taye Diggs -- 'Rent' is finally closing. But fear not, Rentheads; it's not going quietly into that good night.

On September 6 there'll be one final performance of 'Rent,' featuring special appearances by the original cast. Tickets are going for up to $1,000 on StubHub; but if you're not gonna paaaaaay quite that much pocket change, you can see it for the mere price of a movie ticket, when 'Rent: Filmed Live on Broadway' opens in movie theaters for a limited run on September 24. Check out the exclusive trailer as you prepare for the greatest singalong extravaganza since 'Rocky Horror.'

So I loved seeing Taye Diggs on Broadway but that was seriously like $400 out of pocket. A more affordable way to see him is on Private Practice! The show is highly entertaining and a new season is about to begin. If you want to watch a video that will catch you up on all you need to know just go to:

It is worth the five minutes of your life! Enjoy!
