Broadway's Camelot Gets Early Closing Notice

Lincoln Center Theater's Broadway revival of Lerner and Loewe's Camelot has set an early closing date for July 23 at the Vivian Beaumont Theater. The production had originally been announced to run through June 25. It extended shortly after its April 13 opening night to run through September 3. This closing notice shortens that extension.

As of its final performance, the production will have run for 38 previews and 115 regular performances. Production representatives say a U.S. national tour and West End bow are planned for the Bartlett Sher-directed revival.

Good riddance. Terrible production of a bad, bad show.

Sure, Jan.

The show should've be been a recreation of original. Stop updating, playing with scripts and music. All they're doing is ruining historic productions and screwing the investors.

We're going to see plenty of productions posting closing notices in the next week or so. NO SHOW wants to be the 'first' to post a closing notice after The Tonys - but this year, "Life of Pi" couldn't hold out much longer to wait for one of the other shows to drop their shoe. They announced their closing last week. They were the first for 2023.

Now the others can start posting "Closing" and a thank you to "Pi". But probably after this long holiday weekend. (I suspect Kimberly Akimbo and Some Like It Hot).
