Rosalind Adler and Lea Sellers tackle the artistic consequences of tyranny in this sluggish, derivative, and uninteresting piece of theatre. Taking Dmitri Shostakovich’s relationship with Stalin’s regime as their protagonist, they try to weave a thought-provoking exploration of creativity and politics, but neglect to actually dive into what made this man intellectually appealing. Active in Petersburg at the height of Socialism, he toed the line between compliance and resistance, composing music in defiance of a system he could never believe in. Politically, psychologically, and morally, the topic is absolutely fascinating. The reality of Holy Fool is that this is a boring play, both dramatically and conceptually.

The Broadway grosses provide valuable information that can give insight into everything from what producers and investors choose to bring to Broadway next to what show might have a discounted ticket available for the average theatergoer. Historically, this data has been tracked for over a century. The collective data of many shows’ grosses over previous seasons presents patterns which contribute to ticket pricing decisions and scheduling decisions, such as when a limited run should plan to open and close. The grosses guide Broadway marketers and advertisers in every day decision-making as well, giving data to base spends and new placements on.
