CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY had been seen on Broadway once before, in 2018."



Damn, was it a limited run or did it flop even harder the first time? I have no memory of this.

It ran three separate Mondays, when THE ILLUSIONISTS: MAGIC OF THE HOLIDAYS was dark.

Saw this in Chicago last Halloween night. One of the most fun and unforgettable nights at the theater I’ve had. Legit scary. The play itself is barely better than it needs to be, but the shared audience experience can’t be beat. Intermission was a blast with seat neighbors calling each other out for their audible gasps and involuntary profanities. This could be a huge hit. I hope to see it again.

I still can’t get over that one scene. IYKYK. Probably the most effective illusion on Broadway since Phantom closed.
