TINA's future doesn't look good (November 2021 and beyond)

Obviously, anything can happen, but that does sound like they intend to stay open through the winter.

Or until Nederlander activates the stop clause and kicks them out.

It's so funny when people expose that they don't know what they're talking about on here when so many others actually do. The Nederlanders are the lead producers of Tina with Stage Entertainment. They won't be using a stop clause to close the show, it'll close when they want to start making full rent revenue again. Or bring in another of their own shows (One More Time, for instance which seems like it isn't rushing to come in this season).

Saw today’s matinee, what I think was Ari Groover’s third ever performance as Tina. It was my first time seeing the show but I thought she was excellent. What a tour de force this role is! I can see why they can’t ask actresses to do two shows in a day! (FYI the orchestra looked completely full to me. Got my ticket at TKTS, $98 for 10th row center.)

I've seen four shows in the past two weeks, all four have been nearly sold-out(90%?). Come From Away, Hadestown, Company & Book of Mormon. The lack of shows are clearly helping those that are still running. TKTS only had ten out of the 19 Broadway shows up today. Also, the drop in COVID cases seems to help in getting more people out. Even my local theaters here in NJ seem to be doing much better now than two months ago.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

The seating chart/ticket sales for next week's performances (such as Tuesday 7pm) are quite telling. Plus the entire vast rear mezz is closed off. There's a reason why they're not reporting the grosses. We don't know the price (if any) being paid for the seats being filled.

I think this will end up closing on / around Easter Sunday, and Britney will begin performances in the fall.

Selling two tickets to TINA for this Friday (4/29) at 8pm.

Orchestra Row L, two seats on the aisle. Asking what I paid for them, $224 (200 without fees).

Please PM or email (preferably). Thanks!


I am big. It’s the REVIVALS that got small.

This didn't age well. Care to try again??

I was just guessing… let’s now see if Tina can survive the summer months.

I think it's safe to say we are all surprised that they are (a) running, and (b) finding success with this unusual strategy of no major discounts. Grossing north of 800K with only 60% of seats filled and an average price of of $115 is pretty damn good.

People can and should guess/predict what they want about the financial decisions of a private business entity.

Tina seems safe for the summer. Probably gone by Labor Day, especially with no theaters free currently.

Yeah, none of that is true and speak for yourself only. Thanks so much.
"

Incorrect. Most of what Ermengarde says is demonstrably true. Obviously, the remainder is opinion, something that is not susceptible to a true/false dichotomy and thus equally incorrect. You might want to work on accuracy so as to avoid repeated embarrassment.

Sutton do you even see shows or are you just here to be a snarky teenager? You are so nasty in your responses to people.

Hm, interesting. I feel like the Lunt tends to be for "big" shows. I'd think Devil would be more along the lines of Pretty Woman in scale? But, hey, maybe we're wrong.

Hey Victor, Tina is still open. You mad? TINA's future doesn't look good (November 2021 and beyond)

I honestly don’t see how it’s rude to guess when a show will close. It’s not like EDSOSLO858 is wishing for them to close.

It isn't. You are trying to understand a Trumpesque mentality and it's not possible.

The producers have committed to the fall, maybe even end of year. Unless something has changed in the last week and not reached us lowly ushers.

This is encouraging. Though as you probably know very well, any actual decision would not reach the actors, the ushers, the investors, or anyone else in the building until the day of the announcement to the general public.

Some producers are willing to bleed money. Ours have told Nederlander they’re there for a while.


that could change, but our supervisors have been adamant it’ll be there thru the summer.

Thanks for your snark regarding my and many others’ place of employment. So nice to see someone showing care for people losing work after the last two years.
