That's a fair defense of Rent. I wasn't crazy about the movie and never saw it live, but it probably gave space to the success of Spring Awakening in 2006 as another impact of Rent. Never saw the movie. It's not always been great when I've seen it live. But like... not just Spring Awakening, but so much that came in this millennium has room to occupy because of the space Rent cleared. Subject matterwise, I'd say it directly leads to things such as Avenue Q and Book of Mormon. There's also the read where Wicked and later Frozen owe their success to Rent if you give it credit for Idina Menzel, but that's a little slewed. Either way, yeah, I don't think Cats, Wicked, Lion King have any room in this conversation ahead of Rent. It deserves to be here for what I feel are similar reasons to Hamilton being here. --- "Bordate is a pretty shady place, what with the gangs, casinos, evil corporations and water park." - FAHtastic ...
