Sondheim & Friends Trying To Keep NY Critics Away From Show?

Stephen Sondheim, John Weidman and Harold Prince are New York theatre legends. And they have a new show. It’s opening in Chicago. And they don’t want New York critics to come see it. “The three Broadway bigwigs are trying to keep the national theater press away from their new musical, ‘Bounce,’ which will have its world premiere June 30 at the Goodman Theater in Chicago. They have instructed the theater not to invite – or make press seats available to – any critic or reporter outside the Chicago area. Nice try, boys, but no dice.”
