The queens of disco doing it still after all these years.

They sure are. I saw the dreadful Donna Summer broadway show and the music kept us from walking out... and no intermission!

Yeah I heard it was bad too. Wasn't Donna at one point supposed to be the producer and writer behind the Broadway play? I read somewhere she was going to use her life story as one. Looks like they only did a half assed job with it.

Don't think Donna would be pleased.

[luke]

Not sure. Her husband was technical consultant so that may account for some of sanitizing the story, what there was of it.

Ugh Bruce... he was a great collaborator with Donna but someone should've told him not to put his stamp on it.

I must say that I enjoyed it. I don't think the reviews have been all that great, but I guess audiences have been satisfied enough to keep it running through 2019. I hope to see it again.

Oh! Well in that case, it must be doing good box office then!

It’s at 71 % capacity. Not a great indication of going on much longer. Most musicals are doing much better than that

From what I read in the NY area papers it's been doing fairly well, particularly with a 'girl's night out' crowd.

71% don't seem that bad. IMHO anyway.

[milven]

It is not that bad. In fact, it is about average for many shows, especially some long-running shows But the fact that SUMMER is a fairly new show, and it is selling less and less tickets each week is not a good sign for continued success. This week it went down another six percent to 65%.

[Circa 1824]

The show is unlikely to last much longer. 65% is not profitable, especially since most tickets are sold the same day at half-price.

It’s toast. It’ll never see Labor Day. It must be losing money being heavily st TKTS so soon.

Oh OK so it is a flop then.
