Nice bump for SPIDER-MAN, looks like it still can hit its nut, presumably.
But woof, LET IT BE.
Words don't deserve that kind of malarkey. They're innocent, neutral, precise, standing for this, describing that, meaning the other, so if you look after them you can build bridges across incomprehension and chaos. But when they get their corners knocked off, they're no good anymore…I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little.

Posted: 7/29/13 at 3:12pmVery good week for my favorite musical, "Chicago". Wow, challenging times for "Let It Be" and "Soul Doctor."
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

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.

I have on fairly good authority that First Date's nut is approximately $450,000. Just about breaking even, which isn't bad for early in previews when presumably, the word isn't completely out. It may stick for a few months.
Don't worry, I have no delusions that it'll survive the winter.
Scratch and claw for every day you're worth!
Make them drag you screaming from life, keep dreaming
You'll live forever here on earth.

Posted: 7/29/13 at 6:57pmThe sad irony bites - at the same time that MOTOWN is doing well, look what's happening to Motown!

Posted: 7/29/13 at 10:04pmMy guess is yes. When I saw it the first week, the audience around me was LOVING it, as if they were watching Book of Mormon. And I've heard that kind of response from others who saw it. Of course, I've heard some negatives too, though mostly reading here and "that other board" online. It's probably not a show that critics will be inclined to like walking into the theatre, but if they're at all swayed by they crowd around them, First Date could have a decent life. Going next week again right before the opening. Curious to see what's changed.
