THE Arc Theatre, Trowbridge is host to many local theatre company’s productions, such as TAOS’ Little Shop of Horrors, taking place this month. The Arc also has weekly local clubs using the theatre, such as Rock Choir, Rock Project and Characters Stage School.

Now, with a fresh lead by Theatre Manager Cherie Demmery, The Arc Theatre itself will debut its first ever in-house ‘Arc Production’, and they’re not just taking on any old show.

Rent is a Rock musical, written in the 90’s at the dawn of the millennium in bohemian-filled New York City. Telling the tale of an unlikely group of controversial characters and following their journey as they try to break the chains of a stale, systematic society, this show is one not to be missed.

Theatre Manager Cherie said: “We are all so excited to be able to take on a project like this.

"The cast is outstanding, and the show speaks for itself, with its powerful story and amazing songs including the well-known Seasons of Love.

"All we need now is the support from our local community.

"The Arts are such a positive part of any community and we would love to fill the seats of the theatre every night and celebrate what a fantastic first production this will be for us.”

Rent The Musical will have a four night run at The Arc Theatre, College Road, Trowbridge on February 19 to 22. Tickets are now available and can be bought from ticketsource.co.uk/arctheatre
