Rodney Hicks





Originally from Philidelphia, Rodney Hicks made his Broadway debut in RENT.  He appeared in the world premier production of I Was Looking At The Ceiling, Then I Saw The Sky.  He performed in the national tour of Jesus Christ Superstar.  Off- Broadway, he has performed in RENT, Lotto, Chaos, and Bring In The Morning.  He has appeared on television in One Life to Live and as a cohost of Dance Party USA.

Rodney Hicks:  At twenty-two, I'm the youngest person in the cast.  One of the first jobs I got was at the Theatre for Young Audiences in a play called Blocks, and Jonathan wrote the music.  It had issues similar to RENT's.  During Blocks, I saw how intense Jonathan was about his work.  His dedication impressed me deeply, and it's something I can learn from.  The experience of doing RENT has made me very open-minded.  I'm so grateful that Jonathan believed in me.
