Musical theatre graduates from the Queensland Conservatorium are powering a new production of the iconic rock musical, Rent.
Loosely based on Puccini’s opera, La Boheme, Rent follows a group of friends struggling to make it in New York’s East Village.
The Tony Award-winning show has just opened at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC), and features half a dozen recent graduates from the Queensland Conservatorium’s renowned Bachelor of Musical Theatre.
Ruby Clark graduated in 2014, and was cast in a production of Rent at the Brisbane Powerhouse several years ago. She is once again tackling the central role of Maureen – the show’s loud and proud diva.
“I think I am more nervous this time around,” she said.
“I wanted to be part of this show so badly and really wanted to have another crack at this role.
“It is such a high energy show, the music is great and I love the story.”
