This hasn't been discussed here yet?

I think it's moving to the Little Shubert, but it's only a guess.


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

I think "Joneses" theatre announcement was official enough

It already said it was closing, just didn't list a date. And didn't list another venue.

Hmmm if not the Little Shubert or New World... perhaps The Union Square Theatre if La Soiree vacates or the Daryl Roth theatre with a different set up than Frutza Bruta... I can't imagine it at the 777 theatre, Snapple, Elektra or Players Theatre. Strange. Any Ideas?

I saw this show last night. WOW! I was Blown away by the voices on that stage. I hope they do get another theater. This show needs to stick around. Wow!


There is nothing in the world better than Live Theater.

I would guess the Minetta Lane (if I had to guess, after the NYTW vacates in late March). It's a very convenient location and appeals to a downtown audience.
