| I believe The Man Who Came to Dinner was the first Roundabout production at American Airlines Theater (is that the name when it opened?) This may be underinformed but it seems like Cabaret helped Roundabout establish its current footprint on Broadway. Yes and yes to Dinner at the AA... but this was 4 years after 1776, which itself transferred to the Gershwin in 1997, as did View from the Bridge to the Neil Simon the following year. So I think people knew that Roundabout had a Broadway 'footprint' well before either the Kit Kat Club or the AA. |

| And although it was not followed up for more than 20 years — unless I'm forgetting something — the Roundabout's first production of The Play's the Thing transferred to Broadway in May 1973. | |

| Roundabout also transferred A Taste of Honey to the Century theatre in 1981. | |

| Thanks! Forgot about that one. So it was rather less than 20 years before a second Roundbout production transferred to a Broadway theatre. | |
