Chances of On the 20th Extending?

Right now it's closing on July 5th, but if it's an Anything Goes-like hit, do you guys think I would extend? There's a small chance I might get to see it in March, but if that falls through, I'd love to see it when I take my week long trip in September. I'd imagine Kristin is an even bigger draw than Sutton, so I'm guessing it will extend at least once, but the question is, how long?

It would have to transfer as another show is booked in the American Airlines theatre in the autumn

Thérèse Raquin is not officially slated for the American Airlines.

I'm right there with you on the hope of extension! I want to fly out for this.

maybe a couple weeks but thats it, this may not be the smash everyone thinks its gonna be, I just got a 40% off offer from Roundabout

Maybe waiting until we see what sales are like or even hear what the show is like might be a better indicator of what chances are of an extension could be.

Sales aren't great so far.

I, too, am intrigued that the sales are on the soft side. On some level it seems consistent with B'way this season, i.e. the show isn't an event (except to places like this), and there's no specific target demo.

I would imagine they've given themselves a bit of room to extend by a couple of weeks, but I doubt it would turn into an open run like Anything Goes did given that it's in one of their two main Broadway houses.
