Episode #260: Aiyana Smash – Mimi Marquez on RENT 25th Anniversary Farewell Tour, Fisher Theatre in Detroit October 19th-24th, Plus New Single “Queen” Available Now

The guest for this episode is Aiyana Smash, making her national debut as Mimi Marquez on the RENT 25th Anniversary Farewell Tour. During our chat, we talked about how she got the role of Mimi, how growing up in Mount Vernon molded her as person and how that translated into the musical theatre world, her experiences as a part of RENT and how she was able to relate to the Mimi Marquez, and how RENT is still relatable 25 years later. Aiyana also just released a new single titled “Queen”.

The RENT 25th Anniversary Farewell Tour will hit the Fisher Theatre in Detroit for a limited run from October 19th-24th. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit broadwayindetroit.com.
