Caine Mutiny moves theaters - Why?

Why would this show move from the Lyceum to the Schoenfeld. Is it better foot traffic or what? Or are they opening up the smaller Lyceum for a potential off-broadway show to transfer?

The Schoenfeld has a much more desirable location and 150 more seats than the Lyceum, so the box office potential is far greater. Not to mention, Caine Mutiny originally played The Plymouth (now Schoenfeld) in its original production 50 years ago -- to the extent that that resonates with anyone.

Interesting. So now what's going to go into the Lyceum?

I've heard whispers that Inishmore has secured the Lyceum.

I think I may vomit if that turns out to be true.

Why revive it?

The movie with Bogie is the ultimate & this would seem to be very dull . No desire to see it

Movie?

Why revive INISHMORE?

You're got to be kidding.

What would you prefer, another revival of STEEL MAGNOLIAS?

He can speak for himself, but Roxy is talking about the movie, The Caine Mutiny, with Humphrey Bogart as Commander Queeg. When he says, why revive it, he's referring to The Caine Mutiny Court Martial.

Roxy weighed in on the Inishmore thread with the following:

"Very good news.

We love Mc Donagh's work & were blown away by The Pillowman Hopefully, he will change his mind & continue to write."
