I know I'm in the minority but I thought it was half-good, not half-bad.

The show had some wonderful talent (the invaluable Julia Murney and the galvanizing Marcy Harriel), but it deserved to fail.

I'm glad I have plans to go this weekend - nothing like cutting it close.

It was good while it lasted. Glad I saw it twice, when I did.

Wow! This kind of makes me sad. I really enjoyed Julia Murney and Will Chase.

Well guess I won't be seeing it on the 8th... Will Telecharge automatically refund me? This is the first time I've had a show close while I had a ticket.

I really did hope that this show would realize its potential and find an audience, but it seems it was not to be.

I hope the extremely talented cast will find new projects shortly.

ProducersFan, I think they contact you - by e-mail or something, but it can't hurt to call.

I admit I kinda liked it.. by no means AMAZING, but the cast and music were amazing..

Now the cast can move onto bigger and better things :)

I can't honestly say I'm surprised, but it's still really upsetting. I'm glad I got to see the show while I had the chance. I'm going this weekend, so I might not be able to make it to the closing.

I didn't love this show, but I didn't hate it either...It's sad that such talented people are going to be out of a job in a few days!
