The announcement that the 1970s era musical, which had its world premiere in Crowe’s hometown of San Diego, California in autumn 2019, would be moving to Broadway was accompanied by additional casting news. The show’s limited San Diego run earned a positive review from that city’s Union-Tribune newspaper: “Like the movie, it’s brimming with memorably off-kilter characters and unalloyed joy."
