Well, why can't it have it's own separate thread? It pertains to the show's closing. Besides, that other thread is just ridiculous.
I wonder when there will be an official article on this.

Sad to hear.

"Is it true you have Ralph Jr at the bottom of your purse in a jar of formaldehyde?" - Felicia
"No, but I wish I did so I could shove it down your throat!" - Bernadette
"This play is sh*t! This play is sh*t! F*CK YOU TERRENCE MCNALLY!!"- Patti LuPone as an angry theatre goer at 'Master Class'
"Being normal is VASTLY overrated..."

I know I should have known this was coming, but it still really hurts.
I really enjoyed this show and I find it ironic that it's closing one day before my one year anniversary of having seen it. I will for sure be at closing and seeing a few more times before then.

I wonder if this thread will be deleted before the "official announcement" and then reposted with the BWW article. Ha.

Guess I'll have to go check it out again. Sucks for Ben Crawford, but I guess it gets to play the lead role during the busiest time of the year.

Awww. I was just telling people about Shrek the musical today and we were all saying we wanted to see it soon. Guess that's not happening.
Unless, of course, it tours in DC...

What a shame
We enjoyed it a hell of a lot more than the overhyped & in our opinion overrated Wicked.

Because it was JUST announced. Ticketmaster can only work so fast.

*sigh*. I think it was a great underrated show with a great message, and it's too bad that it didn't catch on. I do want to say that I'm annoyed by Reidel and others taking shots at it for it being so corporate, and not seeing the real value in it, but I suppose there's nothing I can do. Oh, well, a year is a pretty good run, and I'm kind of looking forward to some sort of minimalist revival in the future, just to show everyone how strong the writing actually is.
Very sad news. I grew to enjoy this adaptation. Cheers to the creative team, and the cast that was chock full of talent.

Obviously SOMETHING is planned for it.
