Rocky the Musical?

Rocky the Musical's opening was removed from the NY Theatre Guide's list of openings and it also has disappeared from the Winter Garden's site. It remains on sale though. Does anyone know if this is still on?

I just got an email from Nederlander about tickets.

ivandixon2 are you referring the Shubert's website for the Winter Garden? Any other site with "winter garden" in it is a broker site. So is the New York Theatre Guide site.

Look for official sites like telecharge, ticketmaster, etc.

The Shubert's Winter Garden site refers only to Mamma Mia...no mention of Rocky.

The show just finished at that theatre Saturday, I'm sure it just needs to be updated. Rocky ain't going anywhere, don't you worry.

Every time I look at that marquee I wonder why CATS still isn't there.

^Me too!

What's with the Broadway thing? I hate it when they do that. The general public is going to think the show is called Rocky Broadway.

I'm kind of in the middle with that. I don't love Rocky Broadway, but it is nice to see something other than ..... the Musical.

What's wrong with just Rocky? Why does anything have to be the musical?

Waiting for Letterman to notice it.

Probably plays into their future marketing strategy, Rocky Germany, Rocky Broadway, Rocky Las Vegas. "The musical" seems to cheapen every film to stage adaptation and they don't want the tourists thinking its a re-release of the movie. Who knows what evil lurks in the minds of Madison Ave types.

Well if the show bombs, the critics can say "Rocky Horror".

I imagine they'll drop the Broadway if it does have international productions and simply call it Rocky or even Rocky a new/hit musical. The Winter Garden does look cool with the new marquee, I've mentioned before that the Winter Garden has been lucky not to have its marquee split unlike The Palace and New Amsterdam,
