‘KPOP’ on Broadway Announces Closing Date After NYT Review Fiasco
IT’S F8
The musical, which will have played just 44 previews and 17 regular performances, is closing after a series of rocky reviews, including one producers deemed “racist.”
KPOP, the bombastic musical celebrating Korean culture, made history when it opened on Broadway on Nov. 27, less than a fortnight ago. On Tuesday night, it was announced that it would be joining a markedly different historic pantheon—that of the shortest-running shows to ever play the Great White Way.
