New York: Producers have announced that Lennon the Musical will close on Broadway on September 24th. It will have played 49 performances.
 
Lennon is billed as "A musical biography, a concert, and a celebration all in one." It will take audiences "on a magical, mythical journey behind the greatest rock legacy and the boldest love story of our time - with words, images and some of the best pop songs ever written. From the Beatles to the Bed-Ins, from his musical partnership with Paul to his life partnership with Yoko, Lennon will bring you back to a time when music could change your soul... and one musician could change the world."
 
It opened at The Broadhurst Theater on August 14th after being delayed by 10 days.
 
Starring as John Lennon are Will Chase, Chuck Cooper, Julie Danao-Salkin, Mandy Gonzalez, Marcy Harriell, Chad Kimball, Terrence Mann, Julia Murney, and Michael Potts.
