Talk:Simply Heavenly

–––– Reason for closure ––––

Unless anyone objects, I propose to add the reason for closure of the original off-broadway show (fire dept. shutdown theater) and closure for the Broadway show after 62-performances (Actors Union). I will provide major newspaper reports for both of these as citations.

I also feel it's worth noting that on transfer to Broadway it was the first all black cast and production, including writing. I will also add that it was the subject of a 2-hour TV broadcast program on TV and was repeated.

My proposal would be to add these under a new heading, Production History, and to add key cast members.--Cathcam (talk) 03:20, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

I was 10 when I saw the TV production. The dialog is part of my family's private language. Cool Zerita Cool!!!!! 2601:5CC:4400:2810:CDFD:4A61:8EDA:D887 (talk) 09:51, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback, I will add these, I'm just wrapping my Leon Bibb project now. Bibb was in both off-Broadway and some on-Broadway performances using his blacklisted nom de plume, Lee Charles! Which is how I came across this. Cathcam (talk) 21:28, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
