Posted: 10/28/06 at 12:50pmThis is not meant to be mean-spirited in any way, but how long are people predicting that this show will last? It's reviews are not so good, but I am really hoping to see it (and my friend LOVES Dylan), but have to plan a trip to see it and I don't want it to close on us before we get to see it. How long are people predicting?

Posted: 10/28/06 at 1:40pmNot long. They were even making fun of it on The Soup. 60 Perfomances MAX.

Posted: 10/28/06 at 3:31pmHello People!?!! Your saying 60 prefs and 2 more weeks? Anyone realize how well its actually selling? 87+% and taking in almost 400k last week? I say Tony time, provided they have to keep those grosses the way they are. If the reviews hurt it, it will go in Jan.

Posted: 10/28/06 at 5:06pmDon't hold your breath for a recording. I think they scrapped plans to do it this weekend. As for the show, I'm guessing it closes November 5.

Posted: 10/28/06 at 5:07pmYeah, they're not exactly doing badly at the box office. Let's at least say through the holidays and see if it survives the January slump.

Regina, the recording session was CANCELLED. It's not a "yet" situation.
Also, are we assuming that by running at between $300K and $350K, the show is making a profit? I don't know the numbers for "The Times," but that's pretty low for a musical.

Not to threadjack, but...
Is "The Soup" the same as "Talk Soup" but they just changed the name of it?

Posted: 10/29/06 at 11:45amTickets are probably "selling" well because Rosie is giving so many away to her audiences! The performance on The View was not impressive, even though Rosie offered it plenty of support.
