Tammy Faye, the musical created by Elton John, James Graham and Scissor Sisters’ Jake Shears, is to close on Broadway less than a month after its opening night.
The show about the eponymous TV evangelist sold out at London’s Almeida theatre in 2022, received rave reviews and was nominated for best new musical at the Olivier awards the following year. But on Tuesday it was announced that it will have its final curtain at the Palace theatre in New York on 8 December. That will be its 29th performance; the musical also had 24 previews before opening.
