I was all about the Producers, but I caved when he looked teary at the prospect of missing Rent.  He has seen it at least five times.  Five times, I swear.  He declared this the best rendition he&#8217;s seen.  It should be good &#8212; we were four rows back at the star-loaded Broadway production.  I really enjoyed it, but I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s something I would see again and again and again, etc.  I certainly wouldn&#8217;t have been in the audience, eyes closed, singing along with every song. At least, I wouldn&#8217;t do that in the company of someone I didn&#8217;t know well. Just sayin&#8217;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, the highlight of Rent was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0480031\/\">Drew Lachey<\/a>&#8216;s brother, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0005114\/\">Nick<\/a>.  He was in the audience to see Drew play the role of Mark.  While it wasn&#8217;t a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0636562\/\">Chris Noth<\/a> experience, it was a celebrity sighting.  I&#8217;m leaving tomorrow, so I have to take what I get.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!  I may not post from NYC again unless Chris shows up in the Financial District. There&#8217;s always a chance, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw Rent tonight with my co-worker.
