30th Anniversary production! You heard that right, RENTheads, after last being seen in the West End in 1999, RENT is returning to London with Gaten Matarazzo making his West End debut as Mark Cohen! Electrifying the musical theatre landscape when it premiered on Broadway back in 1996, Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer and Tony-winning RENT remains an unmissable experience to this day. Bursting with energy and a rocking score, Rent tells the story of a band of young artists living in New York, who are determined to overcome the fear of HIV that hangs over them.

Award-winning Hampstead Inspire alumnus Alex Rugman (How To Save A Rock) returns to the Hampstead Theatre with the drama The Urmetazoan, directed by Olivier nominee Anna Ledwich (Dry Powder; Four Minutes Twelve Seconds). This touching play brings to the stage the story of two sisters on different life paths, Alice and Abigail (played by Dorothea Myer-Bennett and Meghan Treadway respectively), in a relatable tale which asks the question of whether sisterly connections can ever truly be severed.
