ANTHONY RAPP - Star of Broadway's RENT


Thursday, August 17th


Anthony Rapp originated the role of Mark in the iconic Broadway show "RENT", a part he reprised for the 2005 film adaptation. He also starred as the title character in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, and returned to Broadway in 2014 in the musical If/Then opposite former co-star Idina Menzel.


One of Broadway’s most celebrated rock and rollers, Anthony Rapp brings his new Unplugged evening of stories and songs to the 801 Supper Club on Thursday, August 17 for a very magical evening. 


Expect to hear some of the great songs that have inspired Anthony. And what evening with Anthony Rapp would be complete without hearing some iconic songs from Rent and Hedwig & The Angry Inch?

Rapp is probably best known for playing Mark Cohen in the off-Broadway and original Broadway casts of Jonathan Larson's musical Rent. For his audition for the musical, Rapp sang R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religion." He reprised that role in the film adaptation, which was released in November of 2005.


Rapp has embraced his role as an unofficial spokesperson for the musical and has given numerous television and print interviews regarding the show and its development.

Rapp worked on a production of Without You, a one man show based on his memoirs concerning Rent, the death of Jonathan Larson and the death of his mother. It premiered at City Theatre in Pittsburgh, PA. He recently presented this piece in New York at Joe's Pub.
