      No, don't blame himm.
      Lots of shows are going off of the market right now. Legally Blonde the Musical and Rent as well.
      I'm thinking because lots of people are getting laid off and can't afford to buy tickets because they'd rather *gasp* eat instead?
      I'm really sad that Legally Blonde is gone though. :(

      First Rent, then Legally Blonde, Hairspray, and now this, all the musicals are closing.

      It's not Clay's fault. It was due to end anyway. I love me some Clay. I would like to lick his pink asshole. He's HAWT!!!

      BROADWAY HAS BEEN DESTROYED BY GREEDY PRODUCERS PUTTING HOLLYWOOD ACTORS WITH NO THEATRICAL TRAINING/EXPERIENCE IN LEAD ROLES. HIRE PROFESSIONALS, ASSHOLES!!!!!

      It has nothing to do with Clay. I know you say stuff to get a reaction, but it makes you look like an uneducated ass. Ticket sales have not been that good well before he joined the cast. If anything there was a bit of a spike with him there. For a show to last more then a year is impressive let alone 3 year. All shows end eventually. Avenue Q will most likely end soon also. Last time I saw that it was less then 60% or so full.

      WHYYYYYYYY.
      I don't want any more shows to close!
      Every week there's a new closing notice!
      :( Sad times for the Broadway.
