Just saw a commercial saying it is closing on Sept. 6.. Incredible show- had a great run.

Yes, they announced it about 3 months ago, if I remember correctly.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

Yes, it's sad, but it was announced 3 months ago and we discussed it here:

One of the best experiences I've ever had in the theatre.  I was chatting with an older relative who's been going to see West End and Broadway shows since the 1950s - mostly musicals - and I asked him what his favorite recent production was.  Without hesitating, he mentioned Curious as not only his favorite recent production, but one of his favorite of all time.

Saw a screening of the original production and fell in love with it. Saw it when it opened here and loved it even more. I even bough the ballcap. I never buy show caps!

Just give the world Love.

Saw it in London last March and loved it !! Had great seats, 5th row center in the Stalls. My youngest daughter had "prime number" seat.

Worked it tonight, and I am very happy to say it looks like it's in great shape. Even better than what I remembered. 

The cast really seemed to gel. They genuinely seem to like each other. 

A bunch of them get together to do yoga in the lower lobby before the house opens. They were planning a night out on Thurs to commemorate having just passed the 12 weeks remaining mark. They also all warmed up together on stage.  

I didn't even see that sense of camaraderie when I worked a RSC show. It is so vital to a piece like this. 

I urge everyone to go see it/revisit it before it's gone.

It's a shame that such an amazing production is closing, but for a play, it had an excellent run on broadway.

Also, the stagedoor crowds are really small, so its a lot easier to get signed, say hi to the performers, etc.
