How much money did "Orphans" lose?
May 23

I was in NY two months ago and the three plays that I saw were either disposable ("Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Orphans") or dreadfuly done ("Cat on a Hot Tin Roof")- and they all lost money. I read that "Beakfast at Tiffany's" had lost its entire four-million dollar investment; I was wondering how much "Orphans" had lost.
