For the life of me, I can't understand why anyone would put money into this ... what model are they following?

The show has been selling out virtually every performance at $80-90 for most tickets. There is clearly an audience for the play, even if it doesn't include you. You're entitled to feel however you feel about the play, but it would be especially dense to assert that the play doesn't have an audience just because you didn't like it.

I don’t believe that it is dense to say that selling out for a month-long run in a 200 seat house will not translate to selling out a 500+ seat house (at a higher ticket cost).

It is in the vein of “Be More Chill” - another show I predict will have a short run. Just because a small and passionate audience can sell out a limited Off-Broadway run does not mean that show has a viable commercial life on larger stages with more seats and higher ticket costs.

Yes, and people said similar things about Dear Evan Hansen, The Humans and even Hamilton. Perhaps it will be successful and perhaps it won't. No one will know until it actually happens.
