| assuming if is treated as an off-B show (technically, it isn't), it may be the first but it is certainly not much of a litmus test. What would it be testing? | |

| I thought it was interesting that it is 33% reduced seating—so I assume they means 67% capacity of venue. Since there is no competition, if they can’t fill the theater that would be a bad sign but not definitive since it’s not a hot property. But movie theaters are probably better indicator. They still only sell a dozen or so seats here in San Fran for most showings. King Kong might be more popular. |

| They don't mean "33% reduced," they mean "33% capacity," which is what the state allows. | |
