Episode I: Tune Up Greetings from Cyberland

December 24th, 9:00pm, Eastern Standard Time. From here on out, we podcast without a script. Greetings…from Cyberland.
Greetings from Cyberland is a lovingly critical revisit of the hit 1996 musical and 2005 film, RENT. Join Alice White and Buddy Duquesne as they look back at a show that changed their lives, and the face of musical theater, forever.
This podcast may contain frank, though not explicit, discussions of drug use, sexuality, police violence, politics, disease, and death. The use of strong language may be necessary when discussing RENT. Some listener discretion is advised.
In this episode: Our Background with RENT, a Brief History of the show, Jonathan Larson’s path to RENT, Critical Reception of the Musical and Film, Common Complaints About RENT, RENT’s Relevance in 2020.
Greetings from Cyberland is Produced and Researched by Alice White, and Edited by Buddy Duquesne.
