David Hasselhoff was sitting on my left in the aisle seat when my husband and I were blessed to see Wilson and Daphne in the Broadway “Rent.” Brilliant isn’t bright enough to describe Wilson’s “Angel!” I’ve only cried twice at a Broadway show, and that was at Rent and the Wiz of 1975.
I bought Season 1 of spin city on dvd so I can watch the cast of rent small appearance over and over in season 1 episode 17 what they did in that episode was wishing the mayor a happy birthday :)
It didn't feel complete without Collins/Jesse L Martin but at least we get to clearly hear Angel's vocal line (Collins' rich baritone comes through pretty strong)
