-Broadway 1996
Original Broadway Cast [Act Two has some lines from a tape problem. Clears up around Take Me or Leave Me. My tape is higher generation than most.][B+/A-]
-Broadway 5/1/96
Original Broadway Cast [Basically an unwatchable video. Sound is decent enough of the OBC, but not a video I'd recommend.][D/B-]
-Broadway 1/9/97
*Gilles Chiasson as Mark; *Shelley Dickinson as Joanne; *Norbert Leo Butz as Steve and Others [C-/B][Old tape and the generation isn't the highest, but a decent far shot of the action. No zooms but good audio and a nice performance fairly early in the run]
-Broadway 6/10/97
*Norbert Leo Butz as Mark; *Carlos Gonzalez as Paul and Others; Marcy Harriell as Mimi; Adam Pascal as Roger; Jesse L. Martin as Collins; Idina Menzel as Maureen. [C-/B-][ There are no real close ups, but since it's shot from the right side of standing room, you get a pretty good shot of Tango Maureen. The audio is decent and Nobert Leo Butz as Mark is something that didn't happen a lot. Really only for huge Rent or Norbert Leo Butz fans]
-Broadway 7/24/97
Marcy Harriell as Mimi; Sherrie Scott as Maureen; Michael McElroy as Collins; *Darius de Haas as Steve and Others [C/A-][Show suffers from generation loss and occasional screen flickers, but a decent video with some OBC members and the only video that I am aware of with Sherie Rene Scott as Maureen]
-Broadway 10/1998
*Calvin Grant as Collins; Norbert Leo Butz as Roger; Marcy Harriell as Mimi; Matthew Murphy as Mark; Carla Bianco as Maureen; Gwen Stewart as Joanne; Wilson Cruz as Angel; Jacques C. Smith as Benny [B-]

This could be a fantastic quality video from a higher generation copy.]

Angel Tour:
-Chicago 12/25/97
*Dan Robbins as Mark; *Kamilah Martin as Joanne [B+/B+][Cuts off just before "Your Eyes"][The quality is good, but not many closeups and the action is typically masked by a very large head. It's fun to listen to Dan Robbins as Mark, but is probably best for the true Rent heads only]
-Chicago 4/5/98
Amy Spanger (Final Performance) as Maureen; Christian Anderson as Mark [Video is mostly just of the ceiling. Audio is good though]

-Detroit 6/12/98
*Cheri Smith as Mimi; Christian Anderson as Roger; Trey Ellet as Mark; Evan D'Angeles as Angel; CC Brown as Collins; Kamilah Martin as Joanne; Dwayne Clark as Benny Interesting angle...Nice zooms, pretty clear.

Some zooms, but mostly wide shots and the pictures flickers a few times. Howeverthe sound quality is quite good and you can see an amusing “spaz moment” during Light My Candle”. This is also one of the only videos I’ve been able to find with Norbert as Roger though I am sure that there must be more out there. Due to the poor video quality, I added it here rather than as an individual item and is probably for Norbert fans only]
