I think Kad made a similar point recently, but the reported weekly running costs for this production are about $480,000, so it's the only new musicals that's actually been making money most weeks. On paper, it should be the least endangered of the lot.

We're spending a lot of time, very reasonably, discussing the new shows, but what spooks me is how abysmally almost every new musical since the pandemic is doing. We're already losing Moulin and DBH. MHE, Gatsby, Buena, &Juliet and Six all look to be on their way out. Mincemeat, and Just In Time are showing some weakness. Outsiders seem to have defied their wobble, but they're the only bright light, and it's not that bright. Add in Mormon and this season's mediocre showing, and it's not a pretty picture. I'm praying for a huge summer, but will it come?

Half of your list is completely wrong.

I hope you're right. But I'd love to know why you think so.

Add to that the weakness of the star lead plays that aren’t doing great.  The future of broadway is brand new bold big musicals that are well crafted that people actually WANT to see.  WANTED certainly fits the bill, I’m happy it’s coming in.
