Local teen Andrew Lee, 15, of Newcastle, is stepping out and tackling tough issues in Seattle Children’s Theatre’s “RENT: School Edition.”
Every summer, the theater’s professionals step aside to make room for aspiring young actors, directors and musicians on the stage.
Andrew has been acting for some time, but it is the first time he has performed with SCT.
“I love to sing and I’ve been doing it since choir in fifth grade, but I guess it just transformed into theater,” he said.
The show does censor some language used in the original production of “RENT,” but doesn’t shy away from tackling the tough issues the show is intended to examine, like prostitution, drugs, gay and lesbian issues, and AIDS.
