A lot of pieces had to fall into place for ''The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window'' to move from BAM to Broadway at the last minute.

And one of its champions was ''Slave Play'' playwright Jeremy O. Harris: ''America needs this play. It speaks to our moment.''

But how did the capitalization get raised so quickly on a play that isn't expected to make a profit?

Maybe it isn’t expected to recoup now. But when it was an impossible-to-get ticket at BAM, I imagine people had reason to believe things may have turned out differently.
