Ghost The Musical on Broadway sadly announced last night that it is to close in just over 3 weeks time on the 18th August.

 

It had already been announced the London production would be closing on the 6th October.

 

So now its the last chance to BELIEVE in the larger theatres where its currently playing.  It would appear though that preparations are now underway to create touring productions.

 

Like its romantic leading man who dissolves into thin air, the pop spectacle Ghost The Musical, which arrived on Broadway March 15 at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in a production studded with special effects, will end its Broadway run Aug. 18 after 136 performances.

The London pop musical based on the Academy Award-winning 1990 received a cool critical response when it opened on Broadway April 23. When it closes, Ghost The Musical will have played 39 previews and 136 regular performances.

A U.S. national tour will launch in fall 2013, with plans for productions in Korea, Germany, Sweden, Hungary, Japan, China and Australia.
