Who's your favourite rent character??

I LOVE ROGER!! Adam Pascal is a legend!! his character is awesome--my favourite to watch..aww he's so hot!!
Luc

From what I've gathered from your post, I'm going to rephrase the question...

If all of the actors were ugly, who would be your favorite character?
laura_drama_queen

maureen

I love Maureen. she's so out-there and Idina plays her and has developed VERY well. I love it!
Luc

I HATE it when people say things like that. "I like such and such because my favorite actress plays her."

No! She did play her at one point in time, but in no way is that character Idina Menzel's. Evil or Very Mad
EponineBarker

Mimi. I'd love to play her and I love her songs.

Mimi. I'd love to play her and I love her songs. I also like Roger too.

My favorite charater is angel.
happyguava

I want to play Maureen, but I think Mark is my favourite character. He reminds me of me.
norayouadora

Hmm, I think Angel is my favorite character, just because she has such a positive outlook on life. But if I could choose a character to play, it would have to be Maureen--her personality is the most like mine, and I would love to perform "Take Me Or Leave Me" and "Over the Moon." Very Happy

Ps. musikal_geek makes a good point... Is Roger really your favorite, or do you just like him because you think Adam Pascal is yummy? Lol. Laughing
LittleGavroche

Mark is my favorite because I love the characterization. He is so real in his being scared of life and of his friends death and such. And he sings "La Vie Boheme" and "Tango:Maureen" two of my favorite songs.

And that's not counting what a cutie Anthony Rapp is Very Happy

maureen. idina makes me smile
broadwaybelle22

Angel is my favorite. She is the sweetest in my opinion, and she gets some of the coolest songs.
Azaelia

I also despise comments such as "I love Maureen because I love Idina Menzel" or "I love Benny because I love Taye Diggs."

Seperate the characters from the actors and actresses, please. There's a reason for my siggy.

Ahem. Anyway... I don't know who my favorite is. The characters are so ambiguous, it's hard to say.
Eponine93

Um....

I like the character of Roger because the whole character is so appealing. Adam Pascal helps, I admit. However, even when my friends sing his part he just is such a badboy, the kind of boy that would never go out with me, that I find him very appealing. "One Song Glory" is a great, great song. I also think Roger is the most intelligent (how he lets Mimi go) and the truest artist.

I also love the character of Mark. He really is the narrator so automatically you feel for him. He and Roger are the most developed characters, as seen in Goodbye Love.

Then there's Collins. I love his spirit. He's such a rebel, and he and Angel make such an unlikely yet loving couple.

angel because she's abfab.

Really? I dunno, I find them to have pretty distinct personalities and characteristics. Unless you meant something else? Think
.Tracy0110.

Aw as if more of you don't like Roger!! He's the best one in there-sure there's Angel and Mark and they're great too but they are NOTHING compared to Roger
benjivaudeville

I like all of them, but my favourite are Collins and Joanne.

adampascalluver

i just love adam.

I've met him.
&& he's a sweetie.

buttt, I like Roger too, cause of the obstacles that he overs comes, it is really inspiring.

and the fact that it is adam pascal doesnt hurt eitherrr.
MarkCohen22

<<<---


I identify so much with Mark. His emotional struggles, his artistic interests, his attempts to hide his insecurites...
ilovemusicals1018

If i had to pick a character to play, it would definatley be Maureen. She is so fiesty and flirty, and i have never gotten to play a character like that. But my favorite character in the show has to be Mark, mostly because he sings my favorite songs!
citadellis

Mark, he's the soul survivor of the group to me.
Broadway_Girl_For_life

Maureen, cause she is so Spunky and outgoing.
musicalmaniac396

Collins and Angel!
Mazz

Benny - he's so sweet and misunderstood and deeply flawed.

*counts on fingers*
Isn't that two? Cool
LittleGavroche

While Mark is still my favorite character, when I saw RENT on Thursday night [with Anthony and Adam <3] the woman who played Joanne [Tonya Dixon] really made me like her. I've never liked Joanne before, but Tonya played her very feminine and just more likeable than others, namely Tracie Thoms, have.
Bellis

Angel or Roger... or Mimi because I like her sing in the songs light my candle and out tonight. Maureen is also cool Very Happy

Salome

Aww thanks!

I'd love ot play her. but they better release the rights in the next few years LOL
ILoveToSing2010

Mark.
HarmonicSoul

Mark. He's probably one of, if not the most, relatable character in the show. He has awesome songs as well. Plus, Anthony is adorable.

I also love Angel simply because of what he/she represents. Love. Life. Loving life. And how quickly these things can be taken away.
darthlorexa

I'm not sure if I can pick a favourite character but I love both Angel and Mark.
dollar-diamond

I love Mark...but I love Angel too...and I've always loved Roger and Collins...oh I can't choose! I love them all!
MimixxRenthead

My favorite will always be Angel.

I love Roger 'cause he's Adam,

And Maureen is way too much like me for her not to be one of my favorites.
Milleh

Like most people who can't choose, I can't either

I like all the characters for different reasons so it can be hard to choose sometimes I guess
Mango

Mark, no question.

(...Although I do love Angel, too.)
Razzl-Dazzl

Angel Mr. Green

jelliclesongs

Collins definitley, and Angel, the other characters are too angsty for me hohohoh
Clarabelle

I love them all for different reasons. I think my favourite is Joanne though. And I love Tracie Thoms, but I like the character best too Laughing
ponine_singer

Absolutely angel. She is wonderful, caring, funny, compassionate, and a great dancer. Collins is my second favorite...but Angel is definitely the best in my book.
It sounds a stupid thing to say of a Heroin addict, but Mimi is just too self-centered for me. "It's out again. Sorry 'bout your friend." Confused I mean come on...poor Roger.
And Angel just gives her money to people she loves. He funeral ALWAYS makes me cry though! She also hassome of the best songs and amzing drumming and dancing in "Today 4 U." I have her EXACT nail polish.
*__ElphieTheWitch__*

If I HAD to pick...Angel Mr. Green
And I also love Maureen. XD
Artistic_heart

I think my favorite is angel she/he is so kind and spunky and how she/he saw Tom Collins wrecked up and helped him. I would love to play mimi though cause i kinda have her cool singing voice like when she sings "please light my candle."
lil_89

Mark, hands down. I dont know why, but I just love his character.
AngelSchunard

Angel, because she's got such a positive outlook on life and is in all ways fabulous, and sometimes reminds me of myself. Somehow. Laughing
Sooo...yesh. Wink

MunkustrapQC

Roger!!
renthead4life

my favorite characters are mimi and angel. i love mimis songs and verses and i canrelate to her the most of all the characters. and i love angel because she always has a positiveoutlok on life and never loses hope even when things are bad.

and this is not the reason i love mimi but i love rosario and ppl can say she was the worse mimi they ever say but shes pretty much the ony reason i watched rent in the first place bc i am a big fan of hers. without her i probably would have never seen rent in the first place.
(tht last sentence makes me want to burst into song)
without her.... lol
jetblack_diva

I love Angel! I totaly knew that he was going to die and I still cried so hard that I couldn't hear most of the scene! I was sobbing I'm sure the people around me were getting mad at me for it but... wow! It is writen so well and the actors were absolutely amazing when I went to see it! I also saw Will Chase as Roger so... ooo baby! That was a good show!
fjays

ooh this is tough.
i would love to play mimi, but she isnt my favourite character..
and adam pascal.. yum!

but i think i like angel the most. she/he is so happy and .. i want a friend like her to hang out with. she represents so much..
