Some might say that shows like this which move from off-b’way to Broadway might be hurting rather than helping ticket sales. Goodness knows you can run off-b’way forever (or what seems like forever … The Fantasticks opened in 1960 and closed on January 13 2002 after 17,162 performances) but by staying off-Broadway you remain ineligible for the coveted Tony Award. In grabbing for the brass ring, many shows fall off the merry-go-round completely.

I’d intended to go and see this one after watching the Tonys. How horrid that their sales have been so poor following the show. I would have thought that would have generated at least potentially some interest. Bummer.
