Attendees can expect songs from various projects throughout the actors' careers, music that has influenced their lives, and a few of the hits from Jonathan Larson's Pulitzer Prize-winning Rent.

In a recent interview with Playbill, Pascal spoke about his long friendship with his Rent co-star, explaining, "I’m so grateful for the relationship that Anthony and I have, and have had, all of these years. We still love to perform together, and people seem to want to see us do that. I’m very grateful for him and for these shows that he and I have been able to do for all of these years. We're intimately familiar with each other’s performing style and how the alchemy of the two of us together works so well."

Pascal has also been seen on Broadway in Pretty Woman: The Musical, Disaster!, Something Rotten!, Memphis, Chicago, and Aida.

Rapp's Broadway credits also include If/Then; You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown; Six Degrees of Separation; Precious Sons; and The Little Prince and the Aviator.
