Rent Live's Brandon Victor Dixon Reveals Favorite Collins Song

Brandon Victor Dixon is a Broadway veteran who will be featured as Tom Collins in Fox’s production of Rent Live.

The 37-year-old actor is also no stranger to performing in live musicals on television after his star-turn in Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert, which earned him an Emmy nomination.

Brandon is opening up about his favorite Collins song in the musical.

“It’s probably the [I'll Cover You] reprise, but I have a great deal of fun with ‘Santa Fe’ as well. There are elements of each of them that I love,” Brandon told THR. “[The lyrics of] ‘Santa Fe’ … keep flipping from his idea of let’s open up a restaurant in Santa Fe to we’ll open up a restaurant in Santa Fe. … One of the things I love about our production is that we’re working very hard to make sure that people understand the urgency of the time and just the lack of anything to hold on to. You didn’t know what was going to happen the next day to you or anybody around you.”
