Look how long it took Dance of the Vampires to get to Broadway, and when it did... Well we all know how that ended. If the universe is working against a show this strongly, maybe it's just not meant to be.

I have been dying to see this show and really hope it does make it to Broadway. Hey, the universe was working against Spiderman and it is still running.

This has gone from "potential Forbidden Broadway sketch" to just plain sad.

Someone really believes in this show. I must commend the fight.

I must say that I'd love to see it because I'm a huge fan of the movie. The extra time may give them the opportunity to get Boggess back along with someone inspired as Danvers like Carolee.

I don't think any actor can save this one.

Any investor stupid enough to put money into another potential production (and, likewise, any performer stupid enough to take this job) deserves what they get.

Look how long it took Dance of the Vampires to get to Broadway, and when it did... Well we all know how that ended.

In the case of Vampires, it was the material that was handled badly. In this case, it's the finances. I would love to see Rebecca, but given all the crazy bad press up to this point, I don't see how it could possibly survive a week past opening no matter how good it is. Too bad it isn't based on a super hero with a score by an internationally beloved rock star.

Word is, they're in talks with a Nigerian prince to finance this now.

I actually heard Karen Mason sing the title song, and I have to say it's pretty darn good. we haven't heard such a beautiful melody in so long on Broadway.

I just can't believe they're still trying. I'm just afraid it'll open, and it'll be met with "All this? For that?" This ain't Spider-Man, with a built-in audience, so it has to be the absolute best musical of all time to be worth it, to thrive under the weight of the scandals. And we all know that it ain't nowhere close...

Sounds to me like its just part of his deal to delay paying back money he doesn't have.

I really want the show to work, but it just sucks it's met with all this drama.

I think I read that they already built lots of the set, so hopefully they can make it work?
