RENTheads in the Greater Burlington Area who interested in seeing -- and possibly meeting -- Anthony Rapp, Broadway's original Mark and star of 2005's feature film version, can do so tonight at the University of Vermont.

Rapp will speak -- and sing a bit -- tonight (January 19) at 9PM in UVM's beautiful Ira Allen Chapel. Admission is free.

Rapp's new book, Without You : A Memoir of Love, Loss, and the Musical Rent, was to be released this week but has been delayed. Regardless of a lack of hardcovers to sell and sign in the lobby after the show, the Broadway star-turned-author is sure to talk about the same themes as his memoir -- with plenty of Rent talk to keep fans happy.

Rapp's appearance is a highlight of UVM's two-week long "WinterBlitz" programming to welcome back its students. Last night's packed-to-capacity free showing of the film Rent was hit on campus.

The Little Dog Laughed has been extended through February 26! That's a whole extra month to catch the acid-tounged Julie White and the Cruise-asy hot Neal Huff, so don't miss it. (Neal, if you happen to Google your way here, and you happen to be a homo in real life, email me...)

The hottest ticket in town is The Little Dog Laughed... just ask Kelly Rippa, who attended the premiere and later gushed about the show for ten minutes on Regis. I totally loved the show, so much so that I'm trying to figure out logisitics for a quickee trip back to New York for a second viewing. It's doubtful, but worth it.

Congrats to that awesome cast, its amazing creative team, and the very orange Second Stage Theater -- you deserve the buzz!
