TL;DR Summary

Barry Manilow's musical "Harmony," based on the true story of the Comedian Harmonists, a German sextet that clashed with the Nazi regime, will conclude its Broadway run on Feb. 4 after an abbreviated stint. Despite a quarter-century in the making and successful Off Broadway production, the show, which has not recouped its $15 million capitalization, struggled to draw audiences and faced mixed reviews. Its closure reflects broader concerns about the post-pandemic Broadway landscape, with other productions also facing challenges amid high production costs and lower audience numbers.
