Oh my god! I am still shocked that they closed this masterpiece production! I honestly thought it would go on forever and ever! Thanks for posting this!
But I was so p*ssed.. Saw it 4 times. As often happens, half the audience decide they want to make it out the doors before the EXIT music was finished. I wanted to SAVOR the great music as my ticket includes that music, and I was literally causing a traffic jam and even got lectured by a snooty lady who didn't appreciate having to go around me as I stood by my seat. JEEZ... it's called a musical... the EXIT music is the DESSERT I paid for and it is not like the ORCHESTRA isn't part of a Sondheim musical or that wasn't a historical movement.
So upset this closed. Why?? It won very high profile Tonys less than two months ago. Is it not selling well? This sucks. My favorite musical of all time. With all the garbage on broadway, this seems very unfair.
A lot of it has to do with ticket sales, sadly, as Company averaged ~70% capacity in sales, which isn’t ideal for a sustainable profit. Compared to shows like A Strange Loop with close to 100% capacity in sales. Don’t get me wrong, Company more than deserved full house sales, but simply not enough people took the time to see it. The people who did, however, got treated to one of the most masterfully crafted revivals in recent years, including myself. I saw it in May, and will forever cherish this particular production as my first Broadway show, and favorite by far.

I'm beyond sorry/grateful. I've moved onto devastated this has closed.
I'm gonna start using this in everyday life 😂
Was so wonderful- shocked it closed
So grateful I got to see this production earlier this year. But very sad I couldn’t see it again before it closed :(
So glad I got to see this show!
I was lucky to be in the audience and just as the clock struck to my 44th Birthday was Ladies who Lunch and I got to see it from the 3rd row
My partner and I feel super blessed to have seen this production! God bless you all! Loved the gender swap concept!
Patti turning around to wave to the audience at the end and take it all in was a beautiful moment.

And rumor has it, may be Patti's last curtain call as she swore was done before Company came along.
