Anthony Rapp had a special feeling about Jonathan Larson's rock musical Rent as early as his first audition, which won him a starring role as the video artist Mark Cohen. The Pulitzer Prize-winning Rent opened to thunderous acclaim off-Broadway -- but even as friends and family were celebrating the show's first success, they were also mourning Jonathan Larson's sudden death from an aortic aneurysm. And when Anthony's mom began to lose her battle with cancer, Anthony found himself struggling to balance his life in the theater with his responsibility to his family. In Without You, Anthony tells of his exhilarating journey with the cast and crew of Rent as well as the intimacies of his personal life behind the curtain. Marked by fledgling love and devastating loss, Without You is an exceptional memoir of the world of theater, the love of a son for his mother, and maturity won far too early.

Definitely not just another "behind the scenes" book for Rentheads. Anthony Rapp tells his story with a no-holds-barred attitude that draws the reader in completely to his experience.
A must-read for any Rent fan, memoir enthusiast, or casual reader. Without You, like the musical Rent, shows us what it means to be human.
Honestly, it gave me a new outlook on life. It makes everyday I spend with my mother, ten times better. When I first bought this book, which was a couple months after it came out, I thought it would be another behind the scenes look at RENT. I have a better relationship with my mom for it. Anthony is an amazing writer, and he hides nothing in this autobiography. And while at some moments it is, it has another aspect that keeps you reading: his struggle with his mom's illness. This part of the book changed my life.
Parts of this memoir are major tear-jerkers, but it offers a touching account of Rapp's life, his relationshps, and his experiences with Rent as the musical is cast, rehearsed, and performed. I loved this book. If you are a fan of the musical Rent or of Anthony Rapp you will most likely enjoy this book.
But this book was a story about his life and his losses along the way. I went to see him in RENT in my home town and was so amazed by his talent. I am waiting a few weeks and am then going to read it again. I loved this book so much it was hard to put down. Anthony is an incredible writer and an incredible singer to.
