It Shoulda Been You, Starring Tyne Daly, Lisa Howard, Sierra Boggess & More Sets Broadway Closing Date

Sadly this wedding-themed musical comedy has had a short-lived romance with the Great White Way. Despite a belter of a performance from Lisa Howard on the Tony telecast, It Shoulda Been You, also starring Tyne Daly, Harriet Harris, Broadway.com Vlogger Sierra Boggess and David Burtka, will shutter on the Great White Way on August 9. The David Hyde Pierce-helmed show began performances on March 17 and officially opened on April 14 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre. At the time of closing, the new tuner, which received no 2015 Tony nominations, will have played 31 previews and 135 regular performances.

Featuring music by Barbra Anselmi and a book and lyrics by Brian Hargrove, It Shoulda Been You follows a Jewish bride as she readies to marry her Catholic boyfriend. When the bride’s ex-boyfriend shows up, the perfect wedding starts to unravel, leaving the sister of the bride to turn a tangled mess into happily ever after.

The cast also includes Edward Hibbert, Montego Glover, Chip Zien, Anne L. Nathan, Josh Grisetti, Michael X. Martin, Nick Spangler, Farah Alvin, Gina Farrell and Mitch Greenberg.

Broadway.com customers with tickets to canceled performances will be contacted with information on refunds or exchanges.
