Ugh. So where do you think the money is coming from to pay the losses??? They bank money during the good weeks - but this seems excessive."

Where do you think that money is coming from? Because it seems like you think the producers are taking profit owed to the investors and using it to the float the show."

Yes. That's how it works when a show is running at a deficit. Now we can stop if you want.

Good for Bob! Not sure this solves the million a month they are losing presently. Investors are being very patient about watching the losses pile up and their profits disappear."

He won't move the needle at all. This show prints money on tour so closing up in January after 6.5 years in New Yorkis completely respectable."

When are people going to understand just how loyal and willing to spend money Drag Race fans are? Look at what Jinkx did for Little Shop and Chicago, and Bob is, arguably, better known by the general public after appearing on We're Here and The Traitors and writing a NYT Bestseller than Jinkx was. This will absolutely help sales, especially in the terrible winter months."

THIS.

I'm a gay with a comfortable salary and there are few drag race alumni who could get me in a theatre. Jinx is one of them, and Bob another. Bianca would be the third...and then that's about it. 

Bob is going to generate a respectable income for the production.
