NEW YORK — The new cast of the Broadway hit Rent — dance recording artist Maya Days, Rufus Bonds Jr. (Parade), Cristina Fadale (Fame), Danielle Lee Greaves (Show Boat), and Kim Varhola (Goodspeed's No No, Nanette) — will perform "Seasons of Love" at the annual reopening of the ice skating rink at Rockefeller Center on Friday, Oct. 22 at 12:30 PM.
These new Rent-ers will be joined by Broadway star Anne Hampton-Callaway (Swing) who will sing "I'll Be Seeing You" while Olympic star Dorothy Hamill skates; Stephanie Pope will perform "Life Is a Bowl of Cherries" from Fosse; and the cast of Footloose will perform "Let's Hear It For the Boy" while professional skater Rudy Galindo slides on ice. HOW DOES THIS AFFECT ME? If you're passing by the neighborhood during the lunch hour, make sure you hear these rousing Broadway numbers from several Tony-winning musicals. The performance is scheduled to be taped by WNBC-TV and will air 11:30 AM Sunday, Oct. 24 during the morning show. Please check your local listings for times.
