Kristen Lee Kelly made her Broadway debut in RENT. Off- Broadway, she has performed in RENT, Loved Less, Blaming Mom and The Apollo Of Bellac. Her regional credits include The Diary Of Anne Frank, The Heidi Chronicles, Oleanna and Dream of the Red Spider. She appeared on television in The Kennedys of Massachusetts.
Kristen Lee Kelly: At the time RENT happened, I was still waiting tables, and a couple days after I'd gotten the part, the resteraunt manager came up to me and said "You're not folding the napkins right." I remember looking at him, and the concept of "No Day But Today" really hit home. I quit a couple of days later, not knowing we were on our way to Broadway. Any doubts I had about RENT, the money and so on, went completely out the window.
