It's hard to tell if this is notable, since the name is so exceedingly generic, but given the articles own claims, it ran for a couple of weeks in a single theater, and I'm not seeing really anything to contradict it and say that it was somehow notable. TimothyJosephWood 23:28, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
- Comment - I guess I would add, of the sources that carried it through the last AfD ([1], [2], [3], [4]) #1 appears to be a generic link not mentioning the subject with no archive, #2 appears to be extremely local and of passing importance, #3 appears to be a generic page with no archive other than other generic pages, and #4 (archive version) just seems unreliable on its face.

- Keep Hello! I just joined Wikipedia, so I'm sorry if I'm not supposed to participate in this discussion, but I noticed this article while looking through the Musical Theatre Wiki Project and right after I'd started to edit it, it was nominated for deletion. I'd like to help save it if I can. Would any of these sources help prove some notability? [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]. I found these from a pretty quick search, and I could provide more if needed. Paracosms (talk) 00:08, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hey Paracosms. Absolutely! If you would like to improve the article I would happily withdraw the nomination. If you think you need a substantial bit of time to work on it, I can withdraw and turn it into a draft, so that you have more time to work on it in the meantime before it is published as an article.

- Hi User:Timothyjosephwood! Thanks for answering so quickly. I'd be happy to improve the article. Does this mean those sources would be okay to use? If so, I can get to work on it right away. Paracosms (talk) 00:34, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Well Paracosms, I looked through the first few and they inspired confidence. Just ping me when you've incorporated a few and I'll clean up this whole mess. TimothyJosephWood 00:42, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hey TimothyJosephWood, I've incorporated some of the references and added on to the article. Let me know what you think! Paracosms (talk) 01:57, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Looks much better Paracosms. I'll withdraw post haste. Please do not remove the copyvio banner until an admin takes the time to remove the previous revisions that were copyright violations. Welcome to Wikipedia BTW. Sorry for such a rude initiation. If you ever need anything feel free to ask on my talk page. TimothyJosephWood 02:05, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
