That being said, they should find a celebrity or YouTuber or SOMEONE to play one of the supporting roles for a month or two over the fall/winter, and I think it would really help.
Look at Waitress - looks like we’re learning YouTubers are a solid investment, given how they can film videos during the day and perform at ni
I rushed recently for a Tuesday arriving about 8 AM to be 2nd in line. The third person in line arrived at 8:15 AM. Seats weren't great orchestra right almost at the end of the aisle on row M.
I saw it at La Jolla -- liked it but it did have some storytelling flaws and a few numbers that were cringe worthy (particularly the dancing paparazzi number).

It will have a good couple of years and turn a profit. The tours should be huge. Maybe a one act Vegas version.
Personally, Tootsie and Ain't Too Proud would be on the top of the list. Tootsie would be my choice because I've already seen Ain't Too Proud. I did see the investors presentation for Tootsie, but would love to see it with sets and costumes. Both are really good.
They aren't slipping. Non-profits like the La Jolla Playhouse that pay for developmental productions are a win win for Broadway. There have been plenty of musicals they produced that didn't go on to Broadway. Their charter is to develop new theater, so this fits perfectly.

The issue about these two musicals is that the producers really didn'
