The Outsiders should recoup soon. Maybe Happy Ending probably recoups by the end of the year."
I am bullish on Maybe Happy Ending’s prospects but this sounds pretty optimistic based on what I’ve read - which could be incorrect. While the show is making good money now, and has been for a while, what about those money-losing early weeks to pay back and the overall cost of the musical?
The impression I have had is that it would take another year or so, and that’s assuming the box office numbers stay strong.
This isn’t my area of expertise at all.
