Loosely based on Giacomo Puccini's opera La bohème, the musical is set in 1990s New York City's East Village and follows the lives of impoverished young artists struggling to thrive and survive in the city under the spectre of HIV/AIDS.
The sexy, funny and emotional TV musical sports a bright young cast of familiar faces like Jordan Fisher as aspiring filmmaker 'Mark Cohen', Brennin Hunt his HIV-positive musician roommate 'Roger Davis', Vanessa Hudgens as Mark's ex 'Maureen' and current girlfriend of Kiersey Clemmons 'Joanne', Tinashe plays HIV-positive stripper and heroin addict 'Mimi', Brandon Victor Dixon is Mark and Roger's old roommate and NYU professor 'Tom Collins' and real-life drag queen plays 'Angel' who falls for Collins, whilst Mario is another old roommate 'Benjamin Coffin III'.
You can also see Vanessa Hudgens in these billboards for Grease: Live and more live musical billboards from Fox and NBC.
Get ready for five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes (or thereabouts) of song and dance goodness that will transport you over the moon, and prepare to be covered in a Sunday extravaganza of love.
