| Hadestown will freeze over before theatreowners will lower their rent. That said, the bigger producers get a lot of favors that most producers don't, and Kevin is one of the biggest. He may have struck some kind of deal. Keep in miund that his decision puts out of work the House IATSE crew, doorman, box office staff. ushers, house manager, theatre manager, bar staff etc etc - all of whom are employees of the theatre, not the producer. (the orchestra are also employees of the theatre, but that's just Broadway bullshit that wont go away) | |

| You might recall that the "theatreowner" is RNT so generalizations are not especially apt. Also, your first sentence contradicts the next two. Among other defects noted elsewhere. |

| As would permanently closing. Did you think Mrs. Doubtfire was going to stay open through January and February 2022? | |

| And unless my memory has failed, Mrs. Doubtfire's survival was far from a sure thing. It was panned in the Times, and had mixed (at best) reviews elsewhere. A presumption that a hit was suspended unfairly seems a leap. It was on TDF and TKTS like all other shows, both of which I checked twice a day. This was a production that might've struggled without a pandemic (see Tootsie). | |
