Advantages: top songs and top performances Disadvantages: Adam Rickitt wears too many clothes!
...First of all apologies that this review is categorised under "New York Musicals" - unfortunately I didn't fly over to the Big Apple to see this, but instead had to make do with the slightly less glamorous surroundings of Leicester.
Rent is currently on tour across the UK. It's a musical and covers two main issues - the impact of AIDS and the 1980s New York rent riots. However it is one of those shows where it doesn't really pay dividends to concentrate on the plot, you are much better off switching your brain off and enjoying the ride.
The story focuses around Mark (Adam Rickitt), a filmmaker, and his flatmate Roger (Damien Flood), a rock singer. We follow Mark, Roger and their improbably good-looking circle of friends as they protest over spiralling rent costs and suffer from the impact of HIV and AIDS.
Sounds cheery, eh? Well...

On the last occasion, my company booked me into the Roxburghe Hotel in Charlotte Square.
This is as fine an example of a Georgian Square as you’ll find anywhere in Britain, and the hotel itself had just finished a major refurbishment that made it even more elegant.
You could hardly pick a better spot to go out and explore the delights of the Scottish capital, as it’s just around the corner from the cities main street, Princess Street, where most of the big department stores are located.
One that sticks in my memory in particular is Jenners, a real high-class establishment, that reminded me a lot of Harrods in London. (so did their prices)
Anyway, back to the hotel itself.
It’s fairly big, with over a 100 rooms, and I...

Wonderful collection of songs from this original songwriter and singer. I did not expect to especially like this, but I found myself playing the CD over and over as the music grew on me.
