The precedent has already been set. Maybe you don’t remember the pricing of the final weeks of Merrily We Roll Along.

Show would get mixed reviews - check!
Show would suck at the boxoffice - check!
Show would end up with zero Tonys - check!
Show would close and lose a fortune - check!
Show would get filmed - check!
Bye bye Mat! and curbyour anger, you sound ever so silly Lloyd!
"
The show received plenty of great reviews you deranged lunatic. And YOU are the one who started this ridiculous thread claiming it would be filmed. Every one of your posts is more pathetic than the previous one. Go away.

The cast and creative teamwanted to bring this production to Broadway.
What I don’t understand is how come no other producer was able to get investors to bring this to Broadway. How did Rudin get involved? Was he invited to be a lead producer because the

I thought papering services were geared toward Student Unions of the several colleges in and around NYC. Since school is out for the summer there isn’t that much of a usefor comped tickets."

Very insightfully written. It really makes it sound like Lloyd is just painting by numbers, a la Sunset."
There are plenty of very positive reviews, but yes. Make sure to only endorse the one review that advances your narrative, particularly since you haven’t seen the production.

Cast albums are notorious money-losers for all but the biggest of big hit shows, especially in an age of streaming.
Yes, the show will get licensed lots, and maybe it will even do a non-Equity tour, and those income streams

TasteOfHoney said: "Matt Rogers said: "TasteOfHoney said: "ACL2006 said: "binau said: "There could be an unlikely path to success for Boop where less competition and summer tourists help turn the show around.....I would say never but after Maybe Happy Ending I've learned never to say never."
Foreigners aren't coming over this summer. Europeans and Canadians aren't traveling to the US this summer. Maybe Asians are, haven't seen numbers on them, but it's a drastic plunge that likely doesn't aide in any struggling shows."
You would be wrong - as someone who works at a long running Broadway show - 60% of the crowd are tourists from Europe & Canada , most people do not care the least about Trump andpolitics - I’m in the real world - it’s all tourists - same as always and it’s almost end of June - still waiting for what The View told me to come true, again normal people do not care about politics , they are here . I speak to them , nobody is talking about the things MSMBC told you they care about"
What an obnoxious post filled with lies. I could post a lot of links but I’m not doing your homework for you. I suggest you google “foreign tourists avoid NYC” and you will see all the many news stories about this."
Ok you can keep the articles - I’m working in the industry 6 days a week - I speak to them- nobody cares about what Trump said about Canada or France or whatever - when my show collapses because Trump scaredaway tourists - I’ll be glad to say I was wrong - but until then - you can live in your bubble of conservatives, MAGA, liberals, progressives- when in the real world - most people do not care - unless there is an economic collapse - they will be here and seeing shows , the average person does not breathe WaPo articles , Fox News , NPR etc - still waiting to meet a tourist who cares about Trump lol - try meeting actual humans instead of soaking in doom and gloom media - again I work at. a tourist heavy show - 60% of the audience are foreign- you don’t want to accept it, because some article from The Guardian or The Times told you it’sdoomsday- everyone is boycotting the dumb Orange man and the states , it’s not happening yet- would you be happier if it was ? You want us out of work to satisfy your political obsession ?"
Hun, you can keep saying the same thing over and over but repetition does not make it true. NYC tourism from international locations is wayyyy down. I guess I do have to do your homework for you after all. It’s okay to be wrong. Just admit it (or don’t) and move on. The doubling down of inaccurate info is not helpful.
