Thank you Johnathan …
Thank you Johnathan Larson.
Yeah it is. You can …
Yeah it is. You can hear Daphne’s voice standing out singing “with a thousand sweet kisses” and then the person on the corner of the stage who starts singing Finale B is Anthony Rapp.
Thank you! I was …
Thank you! I was about to say that, but yes that is the truth.

But it wasn’t, it was just written at the same time…
all i ment was that …
all i ment was that it was inspired/created from Rent…
“Love Heals” was …
“Love Heals” was not written for Rent, and was never intended to be in it at all! Jonathan wrote it for a charity actually called Love Heals – the Alison Gertz Foundation for AIDS Education, in support of anyone who had gotten it and in the hopes of preventing more people from being infected. It has nothing to do with Rent whatsoever, though it certainly is just as wonderful as anything actually in the musical.
What were they …
What were they holding up at the end?
Thats actually …
Thats actually Jonathan Larson….he was well explaining what rent was…

Is that the OBC that comes out, or what?
what r they saying …
what r they saying @ the beginning? i can’t tell…
Some people thing …
Some people thing that “LOVE HEALS” is not a song from Rent….well it is! Jonathan named this song Love Heals because its just a slower theme to season of love with different lyrics at the end…. (kinda like THE MAIN LYRICS TO RENT, if you listen closely) (oh BTW, its a never edited into the original play neither the NYTW or the 1996 versions
I absolutely love …
I absolutely love Love Heals! Great performance!

can I ask what kind of camera this is or what editing software you used in order to get this quality of a video?

im crying right now….Rent will be missed and always remain in our hearts.
Thank You Jonathan Larson
I was there and I …
I was there and I was like three rows from where Anthony Rapp came out I screamed and so did my sister. We were already both crying from Jonathan Larson at the beginning and at the end we were balling. My sister saw the show eight times and I saw it six. It was really special for us to be at their last easter bonnet.
O my god… i …
O my god… i havent had cold chills like this for a LOOOONG time. Rent and Jonathan Larson were both truly a blessing from god. May Rent and Jonathan Larson’s story and legacy live on forever
