Broadway ‘Idol: The Musical’ Closes After Opening Night

The musical inspired by the hit reality show ‘American Idol’ has been shut down after it’s first night on Broadway. ‘Idol:The Musical’ was called a “satirical musical comedy that focuses on the outrageous and delusional fan base of the hit television show.”
Producer Todd Ellis said in a statement that he closed the production “due to a lack of advance ticket sales, a lack of positive feedback from audience members and critics and a lack of sustainable financial resources.”
