Oh please, we could ALL wish and dream to have sugar daddies like Mme. Wildhorn -- every single one of his shows have lost MILLIONS in New York, but that doesn't matter at all since he has billionaire investors in Europe willing to prop up his shows here, kicking in hundreds of thousands of dollars every week to keep his shows -- that apparently the real ticket-buyers have little, if any, interest in supporting -- running for years at a time.
DRACULA clearly doesn't need anybody's money -- it will run whether anybody ever buys a ticket for it or not.
I just wish someone would introduce his sugar daddy to some of the really talented composers out there that could actually use the tens of millions that are poured into the bottomless pit that is Wildhorn (who's a multimillionaire himself) and instead prop up a show by a composer who's actually trying to enrich and advance the artform of musical theatre -- Tesori, LaChiusa, Finn, Lippa, Guettel (though with grandpa's money, he doesn't need any handouts), Kristen Childs, Yazbek, et al...
