"Condragulations, you were in by far the best group of the week! I'm sorry my dear, but you're going home" never made one lick of sense.

Website still has the June 30th opening date... damn I was looking forward to this

I was wondering what happened too? Seems like everyone has gone silent. On a recent podcast Willam said they got Lea Delaria to join the cast. And then I haven't heard so much as a peep for previews, etc. I think not opening this during Pride month is bad producing.

It’s just delayed to September, no? Tickets are still on sale

Hm wonder why.

They announced the delay at the beginning of June due to scheduling conflicts. It’s not as they didn’t say anything.

*Sigh* Postponed indefinitely

And yet everyone was telling me it was for sure coming. That first delay didn't make me surprised it's indefinitely postponed. I was really looking forward to this...

They were dumb not to open this during pride month in NYC. And shame commercial off Broadway is dead. This is the kind of show that should be playing at stage 42!

I figured something was up when I went to see Rock and Roll Man a second time and the marquee for this that had previously adorned Stage 1 was now gone.

Aw man, what a bummer. Heard this was so much fun in the UK.

Now that Willam will is announced for Titanique... is it confirmed this is dead in the water?

they couldn't raise the money. Producers were asking everyone. Not enough interest.

I don't think people not into RuPaul Drag race understand how huge it is. I think this would do gangbusters. I mean Jinx was selling out Chicago. The girls still sell out all over the US on tour. Bob's opening for Madonna.

My guess is the show would have fared well/better with a rotating cast. The cast announcement didn't leave me gagged considering how many amazing theater queens and Ru queens there are in NYC.
