DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES Off-Broadway Reviews — Page 3

I noticed the same thing. Too bad the Booth is booked into November. Studio 54 is smaller than the Lyceum in capacity, but I suspect the Shuberts are involved in the transfer, thus the Lyceum. As Grey House just announced a July 30 closing date, I suspect an announcement about Days is coming soon.

It is one of the smaller Shubert houses. Under a thousand seats. Only the Golden and Booth are smaller Shubert houses each by about 100 seats. My issue with the Lyceum is discomfort, especially upstairs which is brutal.

This is going to be a tough sell. I loved it off Broadway and hope I am wrong.

The last thing I wanted after watching this was a drink. It would be a weird move to serve a themed cocktail (like a Brandy Alexander) during this show.

They DID serve a themed cocktail at Atlantic!

I totally missed that when I was there! Like Jordan said, I wonder how many people started to feel awkward drinking theirs.

Really hope some producers are willing to invest in this! We need challenging musical theatre right now and at least the title is not a new one to many - the movie came out in the 60s and Lee Remick was Oscar- nominated for the role. Kelli O’Hara would be in top contention for another Lead Actress Tony and she would deserve it!

I would liken it to something like “Next To Normal” which is also a small musical about real issues like mental health, and it it won the Pulitzer and was nominated for 11 Tonys !

The cast was in the recording studio today.

N2N is more akin to DEAR EVAN HANSEN. Had a contemporary score, appealed to young people, in addition to the praise for its writing and performances.

This show is a bleak period piece with an inaccessible score, more along the lines of THE VISIT or PASSION.

I’m glad there are producers taking risks in this unforgiving theatre economy but, considering the general lack of enthusiasm for this production, transferring seems extremely misguided

Not something I think I could listen to over and over again like NTN, Piazza, etc. Regardless, I’m excited to see this have a life after the Atlantic production. I liked it because of Kelli and Brian.
