Posted: 8/9/12 at 12:44pmlet me put on my big suprise face. they cast had it in their contracts that an extension was likely.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Gee, I'm so shocked. Shocked I say. What did you mention: how convenient that the tour did restart until sometime in Jan? I KNOW. HOW fortuitous for them.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Posted: 8/9/12 at 12:56pmI am not surprised but it really isnt making that much money. Granted the show should have very low weekly running cost. Congrats to them.

Posted: 8/9/12 at 1:07pmGood for them! I had a feeling they would extend since they had generally favorable reviews!

Posted: 8/9/12 at 2:56pmAfter seeing the show in Los Angeles, i'm surprised (the kind without sarcasm)

Posted: 8/9/12 at 3:42pmLet me say, I do think that it is smart that they closed off selling the balcony of the St. James for this show. But, I can't say I enjoyed myself. It was too fluffy for me.

I have little interest, but rather assumed my teenage daughter would, but not so much. I have a friennd that went with HER teen daughter. They are the kind that kind of love everything -- they thought it was pretty lame.
I'm guessing that their plan/hope was all along to be able to extend into that time slot. But based on what the grosses have been, I was a tiny bit suprised. (As we were mostly suprised at the decent reviews.

Posted: 8/10/12 at 12:34amWhy did they decide to close the balcony section? just curious. It is definitely NOT a small dramatic intimate show, so I cant figure it out.

Posted: 8/10/12 at 1:21amI'd assume so that they wouldn't have to sell those tickets. A smart move in my opinion since there hasn't been a show since The Producers that has managed to stay at the St. James all that long. Gypsy is the only exception, but even that could have stayed longer.

Posted: 8/10/12 at 2:14amBut wouldn't opening the balcony mean selling more tickets, even if it is 2 more seats, it's still a profit, I would think.

By closeing the balcony there's a better chance that it can sell out and create the illusion that it's a much hotter ticket than it actually is. That being said I really enjoyed the show in SF and wish them a successful run.
Has anyone heard anything about a recording? I have the three demo songs that they released but I would like a full recording.
