Despite many outstanding reviews, Come Fly Away, the Broadway musical set to the music of Frank Sinatra, is set to close at the Marquis Theatre on Sunday, September 5th.
In addition to the music of Ol’ Blue Eyes, the show features choreography by Twyla Tharp. Her work earned her a Tony Award nomination, though the award ultimately went to Bill T. Jones for Fela!
While the show opened strong, the box office has been falling for several months, presumably resulting in the decision to close. As of September 5th, the production will have played 26 previews and 187 regular performances.
Here’s a short video clip from the show:
The good news is that there’s still time to see the show that New York Times theatre critic Charles Isherwood called “a major new work of pop dance theatre.” To plan a trip with us to see Come Fly Away before it closes, simply click here.
