It means that if a "popular show" is going to close, Aladdin would be my choice. I can't imagine it's been doing well at the box office, especially starting in January.

So you're specifically wishing that all the employees of Aladdin lose their jobs over the holidays? I know it's going to happen to one company regardless, but isn't it a bit cruel to be wishing for any particular show?

If a popular show is going to close would you rather it be Aladdin or a show like Hadestown? That's all I'm saying.

Talk about not knowing how to Read the Room...

I'm not betting on the horses the way you seem to delight in. I think it's a shame that yet another show has to close. And what exactly is "a show like" Hadestown, as opposed to specifically Aladdin?

When did I ever say I'm taking delight in a show closing? The poster said a show is going to close! I did not create the thread saying I hope a big Broadway hit will close. My point is if a show is closing, I'd prefer that a best Tony award winning and artistically fulfilling show like Hadestown not close compared to a Disney show like Aladdin. Is that so crazy?

I think the “only” in your post got you in trouble.

I’ve no doubt a lot of us read the OP and thought, “gosh, I hope it’s not X.”

Yes, but that's quite different than “gosh, I hope it’s X.”

In a precarious moment for Broadway when every show is precious to the industry and everyone employed, you created a Sophie's Choice, and then made it. Respectfully, I'd argue that the backlash in the posts above was inevitable.
