Good for them! This quietly became the success story of the season in many ways. A very savvy bit of producing that I imagine others will try to copy with much less success.

The right formula.  Low Cap + Star Casting + Great Play.  The way to go !

That seems to be the model for almost definite success, though recently shows have gotten away with having 2 of 3.

EBT - All 3

Art - Star Casting + Great Play

Othello - Star Casting + Great Play

Oh Mary - Low Cap + Great Play

Though to be fair, EBT and Oh Mary will be more profitable than either Othello or Art thanks to the fact that they keep running well after their recoupment.

Oh, no doubt. OH MARY has been in the black since November of 2024. For those producers, it’s a slot machine that’s pretty much always paid jackpots, even on its leanest weeks

YES to more intimate solo shows on Broadway. We don't get nearly enough of those.
