| It always seemed to me that "strictly limited engagement" was code for no extensions, usually because the star had another commitment or the theater was booked. "Limited engagement" meant that extensions might happen. Was that just me making things up? | |

| "Strictly limited engagement" means "buy your tickets now before they sell out, the demand is so high that we can't guarantee you'll get in", which drives people to act on their fear of scarcity and buy tickets immediately, rather than waiting. | |
