Overview
- The limited holiday engagement at the Broadhurst Theatre, initially slated for roughly 12 weeks through mid-January, will end this Sunday, November 16.
- By closing, the production will total 20 previews and just four regular performances, according to Playbill and the New York Daily News.
- Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, The Great Gonzo, and Fozzie Bear appear as special guests, marking the first Broadway appearances for these Muppet characters.
- A New York Daily News review reports the characters’ voices are pre-recorded, limiting live interaction and casting the Muppets as sidekicks rather than integrated stars.
- The show runs about 80 minutes as a traditional illusion act, and Rob Lake’s résumé includes America’s Got Talent, Adele’s Las Vegas residency, and Broadway illusion design for Death Becomes Her.
