SIX: THE MUSICAL ON BROADWAY — Page 17

Miles2Go2 said: "Haven’t seen the show, but wonder if people see it off-Broadway, in Chicago, Boston and/or Canada (or a cruise ship) if they’d be willing to pay to see it again on Broadway. Obviously, it’s a hot property right now and there are a lot of potential first time customers in New York, but I do wonder if there is a danger of over-saturating the market if Broadway is the ultimate goal."

I think having it play off-Broadway directly before Broadway would be unwise since it would probably take away from Broadway audiences, and it also seems to fit better into an off-Broadway space (I also haven't seen it). But I don't think the Boston/Chicago stops would hurt it. If anything, it would increase word of mouth for American audiences and prove that it's not just a UK property. (And also Ain't Too Proud also did quite a few stops before reaching Broadway and it's doing just fine, granted it's a vastly different show and also had a built-in fanbase, but I think the point still stands.)

Saw this over the weekend in Chicago and cannot wait for this to get to NY so I can see it again. Very respectful audience: lots of loud cheers and applause but no singing along either. Some cosplay too. However, some of the older folks(maybe age 60+) around me didn't have much of a reaction until the end. I think this could work in a smaller Broadway theater but also think it could work at NWS.

I did the stage door afterwards and met all 6 wives. I told them I hoped to see them in NY next year. I got some fingers crossed and we hope so too type responses. Anyway, if you're in Boston, don't hesitate to see this. Lots of fun!

They aren't identical. Nila's Standby costume is Vicki's from the UK but with pants.

Another engagement about to be announced that will keep "Six" away from New York at least through the end of the year.

Even if there wasn't an additional engagement, I don't think the producers would want to bring the show in to NY in the dead of winter anyway....I would think, regardless, they would wait until Spring. But still curious to hear if this really happens and there is indeed another engagement announced after the run at the Citadel in Edmonton (which ends Nov 24th)

I realize a short run like Chicago or Boston can't necessarily squeeze in a "sing-a-long" performance - well, it's probably too late for Chicago - but, hey, Boston, are you listening?"

They probably won't do anything like that before they get to New York.

Meanwhile, across the pond, a mixture of illnesses, injury, vacations depleted the available cast, so Toby Marlow - one of the creators - stepped in as Parr. It was performed as a "concert" since Marlow and Genesis didn't know the choreo/blocking. (Genesis stepped in once before). Supposedly, they offered all persons with tix - including those who attended - were offered tickets to another "proper" show.

I feel like that's so random

Also, it seems to me like the latest engagement is more or less a quick fix for the fact that Ever After is not ready for another run. Their set at Citadel will likely be a different set from the ART one (because Citadel makes all their sets on site to employ locally within the arts). So they send the set from ART to Ordway and the cast just flys from Canada to St. Paul after their last performance. It says alot more about Ever After being in poor shape then it does Six's road to Broadway.
