| Adding to your response... the interest in plays must be viewed against the backdrop of this season's dismal failures/ And yet we have Constitution which I would have bet would be in the scrap heap by now and instead is continuously impressing at the box office. This is the essence of Broadway: people love something, transfer it, and sometimes they are proved right and other times not. This is why people produce things we love to be skeptical about. |

| Constitution is in (what I believe is) the smallest Broadway theater, which reminds me of the size of a large off-Broadway theater. I wonder what would have happened if Constitution were in a much larger Broadway theater, like the Broadway Theater. | |

| what if it were at Yankee Stadium? the answer to your rather weird wonderment is that it would likely have played to the same 4500 or so people it has played to most weeks. The difference is that the landlord would have been unlikely to have licensed the theatre to them. |

| As a play, I don't think it would go in the Broadway. | |

| I hope they did a LOT of re-writing if they think this show will work on Broadway. After this and "Daddy" I can't think of a more over-rated playwright of the past year. | |
