HERE LIES LOVE transfer? — Page 2

They probably couldn't raise the money. After the very expensive flop of the ON THE TOWN revival (which was 100% financed by the NYSF) and to a lesser extent THE WILD PARTY (the NYSF had co-producers on that show), they prefer to let commercial producers come in and put up the financing for Broadway transfers.

BOBS - this isn't meant towards you - it's a general complaint I have that too many people do,
When talking about the Public, mentioning the 13 years ago Wild Party transfer is very lazy. Mentioning anything before that is ludicrous.
Since then, the Public has transferred almost a dozen shows. Some successful, some not. Some hits, some not. Just like every other theaters/producers track record.
If some rich producers want to put their money into Here Lies Love, it will transfer.
If some rich producers want to put their money into Fun Home, it will transfer.
When Hair was a hit on Broadway a few years back does anyone thing ticket buyers gave a **** about On The Town?

Not a transfer, but a return. Now, what about FUN HOME? Hmmm?

I don't think the Public would be willing (they may be unable) to run two open-ended shows under their auspices.

It seems that the usher who told me that HERE LIES LOVE was going to reopen at The Public was correct. If you read back a few posts, you'll see that I reported a conversation with an usher who said as much.

For the record, the house staff at the Public are pretty well-informed of what's going on.

Still seems odd. They're renting out the space. So.... where will the Public's other shows go?

^ into the other 4 theaters they have in the building....

Fantastic news!! I don't think I've missed a show more than I have HERE LIES LOVE! That there's a OCR on its way only further brightens my day!

But they had a season planned. Was that space just not being used?
#37

I don't remember their initial schedule, but as of now the five remaining shows can be easily accommodated by four theatre spaces.

Does anyone know what the show schedule is? I know they had some non-traditional times in its past run (and hoping they continue this tradition).
#43
I haven't gotten one yet, either, dreaming. They may come out staggered.

Also a member, also got no email today about a HERE LIES LOVE presale. Wondering if there was something I missed in the email about ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA?

I got the A&C pre-sale e-mail on December 5.

Just called to book Here Lies Love, and they said the member pre-sale isn't happening yet. Didn't have a date when that would start yet.
Now t/d/b/a haterobics on here.

If I'm not mistaken, this is an outside production that's renting space at the Public. I thought that member discounts didn't apply. Or maybe members just get to buy tickets early?

So, this means we can string tobias up by his balls now, right?

No, it's resuming at the Public’s LuEsther Theater. I got an email about 10 minutes from them about it. But, no pre sale ticket date. It's odd since it starts next month.

It is back at the LuEsther theater, but it's not a production of the Public. The Public is renting out the space to a commercial producer. Thus, it's not a given that members will receive discounts.
