BK - I was about to respond to that fellow on that other board's West Coast board, but thought better of it. New World Stages is a theater that has had a large number of relatively low-budget musicals, and for some reason (despite the fact that it's had some solidly-attended-or-gone-on-to-have-a-real-life shows like Altar Boyz, Musical of Musicals, Drumstruck, and now Evil Dead) has an unfair reputation for being a revolving door. But in reality, their hit-to-non-hit ratio is actually as good or better than off-Bway in general.
Or maybe that guy was just observing that your show is in the Evil Dead genre. I know that when Starfighter was first announced, we were lumped in people's minds with Evil Dead as well. Given what's happened with Evil Dead, that might not be a bad thing overall.
