Maybeel -Please quit attacking me because I love Be MoreChill. I don't understand these personal attacks. The only fans who get bullied in this message board are the Be More Chill fans.I have paid to see theshow 4 times (not a "shill"
-- it was 100 % wonderful each time. I have not loved a show this much since RENT. (Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned that--are people also belittled here for liking RENT?)

Okay lets be civil here, everyone gets "bullied" on there board when they have an opinion that differs from the majority. This season its people who love BMC, and those who speak anything bad about Hadestown. Last season it was Frozen fans, and before that it was Anastasia fans and anyone who had anything negative to say about Dear Evan Hansen. It comes with the territory, but it doesn't mean you shouldn't express yourself.
Robbie was just being snarky as from time to time there are literal producers the post anonymously positive comments about their productions. Its when people start threads like "The Prom..Go See IT!" or "Hadestown Get Your Tickets Now!" when there already are review, previews and various other production specific threads. Overall though his comment is accurate, the show appears to be bleeding money. Initially many on this board thought that the show was going to fail from the start, especially with its initial pricing that seemed to overestimate the demand for the show, which should be relatively cheap to produce. Then to the surprise of many the show seemed to find and sustain a profitable audience for the past 2 months. This was to the point no one expected it to be a show in danger because a lack of love from Tony nominators. Based on its first couple months many expected the show to sell well through at least the summer, and not become the first Tony casualty, which at this point seems likely. Many thought it would be The Prom closing on June 16th if it didn't get any major awards, but Be More Chills grosses this week seem to counter that argument.
