Posted: 2/2/04 at 8:39pmwell i kinda figured never gonna dance was not going to stay open for very long...my guess is "Anna In The Tropics" and maybe "Thoroughly Modern Millie" once Sutton leaves

Nah....I don't Think Thoroughly Modern Millie is going anywhere any time soon....And I'm glad, I love that show!!!
See Ya!

The Producers
Wicked

I agree with Anna in the Tropics, its capacity hasn't been very impressive.

Ticket sales are always down in the winter. Why don't they wait a little.

I have it from a good source that ANNA IN THE TROPICS will be announcing its closing date soon.
Phantom isn't going anywhere. The movie comes out next year which will boost sales for the broadway production for at least another year afterwards....look what the film Titanic did for the non-related and non-thrilling musical TITANIC.
I agree that RENT has seen its days.. it just smells old.... plus when BARE opens, it's going to make a show like Rent look really dated. All the Rent-Heads will convert to Bare-backers
Deborah Cox coming into Aidia may drive some incremental attendance but probably not much. I mean, when was the last time she had a hit song?
Call it a regime change...

eep, here we go again =/
I will never understand people who "HOPE" RENT closes. I'm tired of re-hashing this same old topic, so I don't even know why i'm bothering to respond lol but really, how can a show "smell old"?
Have you guys seen the show recently? RENT has some great years left, i know =)
But I do have to comment on this "bare" thing: Bare will never, ever compare or be equal to RENT. Ever. And I couldn't dissagree more about it making RENT look more dated. And personally, I don't know any RENTheads who would "convert", but, whatever.

Posted: 2/2/04 at 10:40pmI don't believe the POTO movie will boost ticket sales. The show is already well-known. It will be different when The Producers movie comes out. I also think Susan will do an amazing job as Millie.

If you're talking about Gwen Stewart, she left yesterday.
Kristen Lee Kelly starts next week though.
