From NY Daily News:
"With previews to begin in a month at the St. James Theatre, the advertising machine behind the show has already started the campaign to sell tickets.
“Producers, which include his sister Letty Aronson, are very worried,” a Broadway insider tell Confidenti@l. “The timing is a disaster. Woody’s name was the most powerful marketing tool they had. Now you cannot say his name without thinking about the accusations.”
Advertising for Allen's first Broadway musical 'Bullets Over Broadway' has shifted its focus away from him.
Rehearsals for “Bullets” are well underway, with producers tweaking their roll-out plan of posters and press materials to focus more on Zach Braff — who plays the lead role of David Shayne – than on Woody.
“Originally the plan was to introduce the show in a similar way to Mel Brooks’ ‘The Producers,’ ” says our source. “That has been scrapped. Now the campaign will focus on the cast itself and not Woody as author. His name, but not his image, will appear in advertisements, and he will have a very low profile at the theatre.”
Allen’s representatives have denounced the young Farrow’s letter, calling her claims “untrue” and “disgraceful.”
A rep for “Bullets Over Broadway” said “the campaign has been in the works for many months and nothing has changed.”
Don't know how much of this is factual, but found it interesting nonetheless.
