Interesting. That's a great space for the show to go into.

Wow, has a show ever closed on Broadway and then transferred back to Off-Broadway? This is pretty great.

Would they really close a show on Broadway and move at to an off Broadway house?

The producers clearly feel there is still an audience for the show, and that there is an opportunity for further profit in a smaller house?

"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

So un expected but I'm really happy. It looks like the prices are staying the same as Broadway $66 and $126
Would they do a lottery at NWS or Student rush?

Yes, it has happened before. In 1980, Billy Bishop Goes to War closed on Broadway at the Morosco and moved to the Lucille Lortel. In 1984, the original 'night Mother closed at the Golden and moved to the Westside Arts Theatre.

Begin at the beginning and go on till you come to the end: then stop.
