Rodriguez began his current stint in Rent on July 5, taking over for longtime Angel, Andy Señor. Rodriguez is now best known for being the "Culture Vulture" on Queer Eye For The Straight Guy; however, before he found success on the small screen, he had a rising stage career. Rodriguez appeared as Angel in Rent in both Canada and on Broadway. He was also featured in the Lincoln Center mounting of Spinning Into Butter and most recently starred in last year's off-Broadway musical Zanna, Don't!.
Señor will return to the company of Rent for performances from July 19 through July 31.
