Anthony Rapp
When Rent opened to thunderous acclaim off-Broadway, Rapp knew that something truly extraordinary had taken shape. But even as people celebrated the show's success, they were also mourning the sudden death of the show's creator.
When Anthony's mom began to lose her battle with cancer, he struggled to balance his theater career with his responsibility to his family. Here, Anthony recounts both the show's huge success and his overwhelming loss. He also shares his experiences discovering his sexuality, the tension it created with his mother, and his struggle to gain her acceptance.

He is painfully honest in the text, not pulling punches or trying to make himself look good. In that regard, I greatly enjoyed the book and it’s wonderful to hear Anthony read his own work. But if you’re looking for a lot of inside scoops about the production of rent, this isn’t the book for you.
Less about Rent, more about Rapp’s relationships
