High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens is sticking to her singing roots but will be expanding into drug-filled territory during this summer's production of Rent. The actress is slated to star as Mimi, the HIV-positive exotic dancer in the award-winning, fan-favorite play.
The play will also mark the musical directing debut of actor Neil Patrick Harris. A star of Rent's 1997 LA production and national tour himself, hopefully he can help Vanessa draw out her inner junkie.
The play will run from August 6-8 at L.A.'s the Hollywood Bowl.
