While you may not, and summertheater may think s/he does, people who make a living selling tickets to Broadway shows do know, and what they know is that precious few people in Queens buy tickets on school nights regardless of the time. And if there is an exception to that rule, it is when shows are papered or possibly on TDF, and guess what, producers don't make a living catering to self-entitled "I am the center of the universe" folks they comp, and especially not at the expense of paying customers. There is a calculus and summertheater's back seat driving doesn't overcome it.
