Rent At Durfee...

I was delighted when my friend Kyle asked me to join him in seeing the opening night of Rent at Durfee High School. Drawing on a history of miserable school productions, I went in assuming the worst. Thankfully, I was pleasantly surprised. The set was beautifully done and could easily rival a professional production, the students fit their roles nicely, and acting and voices were fairly convincing. I had to remind myself several times that the show was not able to be fully explored due to school restriction. That aside, it was an enjoyable experience with a great effort put forth by all. My favorite part of the night--getting to spend time with a good friend and catch up.
