I do not think this had massive problems. It did have some tone issues, Book is not A+ but not poor either, I think it's more fine tuning some things. Regardless, the general public will absolutely adore the show. I see this being a big time hit and hard ticket to get for the next year or 2 

So isn't the Al Herschfeld a little small backstage for all the big sets? 

YAY!!!

This did not have "massive" problems. The only thing they need to fix is the ending. Seeing it in Boston was one of my all-time favorite theatre experiences and I can't wait to finally have this here in New York

I thought the colonial was too and they proved me wrong so who knows but my initial thought is this as well. Also I've sat in the rear mezz before here and I think the overhang is going to be difficult to over come when the stage goes into the audience. Hopefully they make adjustments for this theatre. 

It was evident from the get-go that Burstein's engagement in My Fair Lady was set to accommodate a transfer of this.

Am I still hoping Aaron will have some sort of scheduling conflict? Maybe. Otherwise, I'm thrilled that Karen, Danny, and the rest will be coming in with the show. Happy they'll have time to fix some of the book issues *cough* drop the laughable Shake It Out  scene*cough* but it's going to be a monster hit anywa. I'm still not convinced the Hirschfeld is the right theatre for it, but I'm happy it'll have a welcoming home.

There was no way they were going to replace Aaron Tveit for the Broadway transfer.  He is one of the bigger draws for this show. Even in Boston, he had fans flying in from all over the world just to see him in the show.  At the time, there was no guarantee the show was transferring to Broadway or he would be transferring with the show.  I can see these same fans making the trek to Broadway to see it again.
