“As Karen Smith once said, everything is really two things.
Yes, this news makes us want to cry into our cheese fries.
Tony winner Casey Nicholaw directed and choreographed the show, which opened on Broadway on April 8, 2018.
I look forward to the day, hopefully soon, when theaters can open their doors again.”
“And to our fierce and dedicated fans the limit of our gratitude does not exist.”
