Watch: ‘Rent Live’ brings back OBC cast for finale song
The show’s only live segment was the end act
Fox’s “Rent: Live” paid tribute to the 1996 original Broadway cast by bringing the group on stage to perform the musical’s iconic song “Seasons of Love” to close out the show.
Ironically, “Rent: Live” aired primarily pre-recorded footage from its Saturday dress rehearsal instead of the live musical version. The live version was scrapped last minute after Brennin Hunt (Roger) broke his foot during the Saturday rehearsal.
The show went live for the first time all night during the last act of “Finale B” with Hunt propped in a chair as he belted out the final song.
