I guess the producers hoping for some wind to come beneath their wings…

It puzzles me how obsessed and excited this board is for dozens of people to become unemployed. The show isn’t great. We all know this, but chill out. Go touch grass. Breathe outside the theater bubble. Would you want a bunch of people guessing when you’d be fired? Humanity much?

It's puzzling someone on this board doesn't want a new show to come in that will give others a chance to be employed, and for this group to be able to seek more secure employment. Humanity much?

LOL @ more secure employment.

Nice try, idiot. There’s no show lined up for the summer. Theater works on availability. And Beaches is limited, so it had the theater for a certain amount of weeks. Nice childish comeback, makes you look real stupid.

Oh good grief. You live for the “negative” comments so you can clap back with your fake outrage. Grow up

There's only one person in this post here using words like "idiot", "childish" and "stupid" .

How does that make you look?

People are snarky and rude on these threads all the time and you all expect folks to applaud at your cunning come backs. I don't care about how "I look." I made a statement about people's livelihoods and a joke was made in response. How does that make you all look? It's funny to make a mockery of actors and shows, but not fun to be called out. That's actually exactly what you all are doing to these people who give you something to talk about. 

You want kindness, but you spew out pettiness. So I will meet you where you are. If you're being stupid on purpose then yes you are an idiot.

Incorrect. I live for thoughtful discourse and a lot of people on here enjoy saying sly comments for applause. I'm meeting people where they are. Don't blame me.

No one publicly moralizes in quite the same way as theater people. What is it about our industry that attracts such insufferable prigs?

We are not "excited" for the show to close. Jesus.

When it's obvious that a show isn't doing well, it's just a matter of time before it closes. Why the producers keep funnelling money into this to keep it open is dumbfounding. No Tony nominations, poor reviews and a bad word-of-mouth. There's no reason this should be staying open outside of giving the cast and crew a paycheck.

The industry is built on the idea of show turnover and it is understood that when a production cannot do sustainable business, it closes. This needs to stop being treated like a tragedy.

Agreed, but I still don't wish anyone to be out of business because of my dislike.

Yeah, we understand the way the business works. Many of us much better than you. People losing their jobs deserve empathy, not cruelty. You talk about these situations like the people involved are disposable. It shows how far you are from the reality they’re living, and the embarrassing lack of empathy and respect you have for the people who keep this business running.

while I'm certainly not celebrating anyone being out of a job, there is clearly no way to save this show. Most of us are simply curious why they are delaying the inevitable.  Actually, i'd much prefer they put this out of it's misery so that the very talented cast and crew can quickly move on to other projects that stand a better chance........ my ultimate hope is for Ms. Vosk to move over to the Lunt, and perhaps prevent Death Becomes Her from closing as well
