Broadway’s first post-Tony-nomination casualty has arrived: the shut-out Bob Fosse’s Dancin’ will play its final performance on Sunday, May 14.
Producer Joey Parnes made the announcement today. When it closes, the updated revival of the 1978 musical will have played 17 preview performances and 65 regular performances.
The show received no Tony Award nominations this morning.
The musical, directed by Wayne Cilento and featuring reimagined stagings of original Fosse choreography, opened to mostly tepid reviews on March 19. The show has struggled at the box office, and last week filled fewer than half the available seats at the Music Box Theatre, grossing just $386,970.
In addition to Cilento, who appeared as a dancer in the original production, the revival’s creative team included scenic design by Robert Brill; costume design by Reid Bartelme and Harriet Jung; lighting design by David Grill; sound design by Peter Hylenski; and video design by Finn Ross.

Bob Fosse’s Dancin’ is the first casualty of the Tony Awards.
The revival of the musical revue, which opened on Broadway on March 23, announced Tuesday evening that it would play its final performance at the Music Box Theatre on May 14. The closing notice comes after the show did not receive any Tony Award nominations Tuesday morning and has seen waning box office numbers.
Dancin’ is directed by Wayne Cilento, one of the stars of the original Broadway production, and produced in cooperation with Nicole Fosse, daughter of the legendary choreographer. The cast features more than 20 dancers, who are expanding on classic Fosse numbers, such as Mr. Bojangles and Sing Sing Sing, in the vein of the original 1978 revue.
The show recently saw a downturn box office. In the most recent week, which ended April 30, Dancin’ played to 48 percent capacity and grossed $386,970, below a typical running cost for a show of this size.
