Correct me if i'm wrong but most shows billed as PRE-BROADWAY as in, plans are set to come in....don't have the NY critics come out for the shows. Same thing with CHER etc....Sometimes the producers request it but often when they "know" they're coming in when they're out of town they don't get a Times review.
Also last night was an Opening Gala for the colonial and not the official press night.....
