It's September, you guys. . .it's to be expected.

Does it matter that no show actually had a stellar week? I can't figure out the good and the bad.

Still it is disappointing. I hope it stays open. I know last Saturday night was packed.

I wish every night was like that.

You're right, Erik. However, they weren't doing that well to begin with.

Me too.

"The Wedding Singer stars Stephen Lynch as Robbie Hart and also features Richard Blake, Kevin Cahoon, Felicia Finley, Rita Gardner, Matthew Saldivar and Amy Spanger."

Ok, I am certainly not an expert on this, but read one other time on here that you should buy advance tickets.

If they sell enough, maybe they'll stay open. And even if they don't, they'd refund your money so you really wouldn't be losing anything. Unless you had to pay a lot for travel or something.

But at least if they know they're selling tickets for a few months ahead, they'll try to stay open, you know?

Buy the tickets. Advance sales are always good. If the show does close, you can use the refund to get tickets for something else while you're here.

You can't expect anyone to believe that they didn't see this coming. It's September, the tourists are gone.

BlueforBroadway - LOTS of show's had excellent weeks. Chicago, at age 10, played to an SRO crowd. A Chorus Line took in over $700k, which, for a theater like that, is remarkable.

I still believe it'll stick out till New Year's.

I hope it stays at least through New Years!!

[bwayondabrain]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 6:56pm

yeah, ill try and buy the tickets this week
found some GREAT seats!
and i also think it should stick around till New Year's..maybe it will close on the 31st ala SWEET CHARITY (which also played the theatre)
that would be weird
but yeah

It's not a matter of should/shouldn't. It's a matter of how much hope Margo Lion and the Producers have for it. If it's continuously losing money (like usual), then there's no point in keeping it going as early as tomorrow. I'm sure they're still hoping, but continuously losing it.

It's a tax write-off, afterall.

That's Broadway for ya.

PS: Perhaps Laura's return could boost sales slightly. Doubtful, but who knows.

[Yankeefan007]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:02pm

PPS: I wanna be atop the 100th page.

[bwayondabrain]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:03pm

lets have a contest- who gets to the top of the 100th page first!

and yeah, i wonder if they will try and bring in another celebrity

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:04pm

i wanna be on the top of the 100th page too, lol...:)

[Yankeefan007]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:05pm

No more celebrities.

[Crazy4MattMorrison52]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:05pm

i really wish tina could stay =/

[Yankeefan007]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:05pm

They cost too much money

[Yankeefan007]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:06pm

Tina's still got a job, you know.

[bwayondabrain]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:06pm

good point, yankee

constantine is thinking of extending, though, he said in the playbill interview

yeah

[Yankeefan007]

Posted: 9/25/06 at 7:06pm
