I saw the original production of The Rothschilds (with some replacements in the cast) and it was terrific. But if The Life at 466 performances is hardly a flop, is The Rothschilds at 507 even less of a flop (although it closed at a substantial loss)? The Rothschilds got a national tour, a stock tour, and an Off-Broadway revival that ran 13 months (counting the initial run and the commercial transfer together).
The downsized revision is truly a diminution of a piece that demands to be epic. |
