I just got tickets for August (off of BroadwayBox.com) and was wondering how popular it's going to be. Are we talking in the 90's (percentage wise)? This might seem like a silly question/thread, but I really want to know. Any opinions or predictions on how hard tickets are gonna be to snatch? My mom is coming to the city in September and she doesn't know whether to get tickets now or later...

Beyond the posters here, I don't think anyone's ever heard of it.
I think in the beginning it won't do well but after reviews come out and the Tony's or other awards or attention they will do fairly well. But I don't see it becoming a huge hit. I want to see it, when does it start previews
I'm inclined to agree with Yankeefan.
I think it's going to do well, it's done well in all other incantations, that's what makes the show, the fact that it can adapt and fit the new criteria required.
Fine no helicopter. falling chandelier or turntable (although they have said....) but theatre should be more than that anyway, that's why I think [title of show] will work.

It'll have a great first week, when all the BWW people go. After that....not so much.
Try convincing tourists to fork over $111 a seat for a 90 minute show with two folding chairs and a keyboard, plus a cast of 4.
That does seem like alot of money. I look forward to hearing your reviews.
I'm looking forward to their Tony campaign.
