Don't musicals usually open on Broadway first? Bodyguard seems to be doing the exact opposite. Is their end goal still Broadway?

I wish they would stop bringing crap like this and ghost to Australia ( ghost was a huge flop ) this will be just as bad , and no doubt filled with some idol, xfactor, voice wanna be ....

at this point I doubt they care about Broadway. they know the minute it lands on Broadway the critics will rip it to shreds and the production will close within a week (hyperbole). '

 

Plus its basically a Whitney Houston impersonator concert. No need to have the words "Broadway musical" plastered over posters.
