To mean it doesn't every feel like I'm too far from the stage or bad views. The Guys and Dolls revival felt too big for that space, but something like War Paint felt perfectly sized.
They should sell this as a limited engagement for like 4 months and then they can always extend due to high demand. 1200 seats a night is a lot of tickets to move forward.
I mean can’t they just redesign be set for any space? I don’t think that dictates which theater too much. I think they think Mendel will sell tickets. Which has proven to do.
Idina absolutely will sell tickets. She comes to Broadway so rarely compared to some of her counterparts (Audra, Sutton, etc). Plus this sounds like a much smaller show than IF/THEN from a budget perspective.

The producers have perfectly timed the opening of this show. I imagine there will still be a lot of buzz from the Wicked movie. They can use some of that press to promote Idina’s return to Broadway.
