Anyone have any scoop as to what happened? Just curious as I'm supposed to go tomorrow. This was opening night, so I wonder if part of the set didn't arrive in time? They clearly had time to set up a matinee on Friday and write a release. Wonder if anyone here is "in the know" and can share what's up. Thanks!

The same thing happened in Detroit. They canceled the opening night performance an hour before showtime. Most people were already on their way to the theater - or in my case at the theater - when they told us to turn around. 

We were told it was a technical difficulty - I'm assuming it was just major screen malfunctions.

The screens were my other thought. Thanks for the reply.

Yeah! The attendant at the flat lot told us as we were trying to park. The funny thing is that I checked my email before leaving my house to make sure it wasn't canceled.
