Since Covid, has any production reported recoupment? 

It feels like producers aren't announcing it anymore. I think that's very classy, but as someone who loves to know financial information about Broadway...I'm tacky and want to know!

We can still debate box office. We can still be catty about theatre

Thank you for reminding me about Chicago. I totally forgot about that. 

I've heard this school of thought about workshops. I get trying to save $5 million, but I feel like you'll never get an honest audience response in that environment. What do you think? 

Also agree that word of mouth out of town probably isn't worth $5 million. SLIH is a bad case study for what I'm trying to say since it was always going to appeal to an older demographic. (Kpop is pr

I always wondered why Some Like It Hot opened cold on Broadway. 

The obvious reason to open out of town is that the creative team sees it with an audience, receives reviews, and then has time to tinker. I really think another pass at the script and a few new songs could kick this show into high gear.

But I wonder if nowadays it's almost more important to open out of town for marketing/advertising reasons. I'm really curious about people's opinions about
