The East Village stage of New York Theatre Workshop, where Rent was born, has taken the form of a Dublin pub — complete with booze bottles, smoky mirrors and sepia-glowing incandescent bulbs — for the Manhattan premiere of the Irish-pop and folk-infused musical Once, inspired by the hit indie film. Opening night is Dec. 6, following previews that began Nov. 15.
