Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:26pmNot shocked, but that is too bad. No matter what one's thoughts may be on the piece, it is undeniably a labor of love for all involved.

Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:30pmI hate hearing this.. First XANADU, now TITLE OF SHOW... When will the madness end? I'll admit I'm being a little melodramatic, but really come on...

Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:31pmThis is MADNESS!!! I've been dying to see [tos]!!! I'm so close to getting my own ticket! CRAP!!

Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:32pmWell, Maurice, there are many that would argue that the "madness" was in actually opening XANADU or {TOS} on Broadway. Obviously ten or fifteen years ago, when Off Broadway was actually still a feasible commodity that never would have happened. Both shows will have long afterlifes in regional/community/high school theatre so thats the good news.

Honestly it has not been a good season for me. First Cry Baby (I miss Spencer's...yeah. Also Alli Mauzey and Christopher Hanke), then Passing Strange, then ACL, then RENT, then HAIR (but yay for it opening on broadway) then Xanadu now [tos].

BALLS!!!
I have been planning since June to come to NY the weekend of Oct. 12-13th TO SEE [TOS]!
I don't know if it's going to happen. But now it has to, I can't miss this show.

Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:41pmYES! Finally!! I love the cast, but the show itself doesn't do it for me.

This could have run longer with better marketing. I'm just saying...

Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:46pmHow do we know 13 is closing?
#17re: [title of show] to Close on Broadway October 12
Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:46pmI don't particularly care for [tos] either but you should never be glad a show is closing.
#18re: [title of show] to Close on Broadway October 12
Posted: 9/19/08 at 8:48pmOkay, I'm sorry. I am just happy that a new show can finally have a theatre. It had a good run, and I am happy for all of the performers. Sorry to all you tossers!!!

This really bums me out - mediocre shows can run for years, but when a wonderful little piece like this comes along, it gets a 100-show run.
Of course, that's how the business goes, but the fact remains that [tos] is infinitely better than many shows whose runs will have outlived its own.

This could have run longer with better marketing.
How about marketing period? Aside from the banner ads on this site I didn't see a stitch of advertising for this show... Unless we're counting the [title of show] show on youtube.
