I finally saw it for the first time yesterday. I'm so glad I made it to NY in time to see it before closing. I loved it more than I thought I would. Good luck to the cast, please come back to Broadway soon!

A very sad day, only brightened by the fact that this little show that could...well...did. It made it to the Great White Way, made it past Jeffy's 50 shows rule, and was truly original on Broadway. For that, I give it props and a heart-filled goodbye.

Goodbye, [title of show]...you will be missed.

I was lucky enough to see this show 3 times and it got better ever time.

I'm x-posting this from the "this thread rocks" thread:

Hey y'all

I think we should make a conectrated effort to let tonight's show still be a show. Obviously rioutous entrance applause and post-song applause is acceptable, but I'd prefer I be able to enjoy the songs/dialogue tonight one final time uninterrupted by people's screaming laughter or random "we love you!"'s like Idina's last Wicked or something.

We can probably bank on stopping the show after "A Way Back to Then," but lets let the show be a show, not a screaming match.

I'm so conflicted I want to say "can't wait to see it again tonight" but I also don't want tonight to be my last chance to do so :'(.

I have faith that the show will still be around (or reopened) in some way, shape, form or location when I get back down in January.

Therefore I won't say goodbye...just see you soon.:)

You'll always be [nine people's favorite thing].

Too cliche?

Just got back from the show. Still shaken up.

Nearly every song got a standing ovation for about a minute each (Way Back to Then got about two). The standing O after Nine People's... was a) deafening and b) about five minutes long. Susan and Heidi were SOBBING. Jeff's voice got choked up at the beginning of it. Larry got the most ear-splitting applause when he walked on.

Now, the show... probably the best I've seen it performed. I've seen it three times and each time, they've poured their hearts into it. They're just those kinds of performers, appreciative of every moment and having a "kick-ass time" on that stage. But tonight?! CRAZY. Every joke, every note, every emotion laid bare on that stage. It was truly an incredible experience, whether you're a fan of the show or not.

AND (a nice ending to a sadly financially unsuccessful run) it was COMPLETELY sold out. A very bittersweet ending. But we know we haven't seen the last of them. No one is going to hold a spirit like that group's spirit down.
