Why would any of the theatre owners tie up a theatre - again - for this show. Or why would an actor. Yes they geta few $, but on top of everything else - how can you trust a producer who has already shown such terrible lack of judgment - twice? And on a show which is a great show in Europe - or Vienna - but a really mediocre show by Broadway standards. I dont mean our standards are higher - ts just the kind of angsty Euro-Pop musical which has never been a bit in an English language country. RIP Rebecca.

I don't see where any theatre owner or actor has committed to anything. The only commitment I see is that the rights holders have agreed to grant these worthless rights to Ben for another period of time. I think anyone is such circumstances would take even a nominal option payment from him. The only thing really whack is who are these new people who have presumably an aversion to their money.
