Broadway's 'Room' Production Postponed Indefinitely Due to Funding Issues and Producer Withdrawal.
The Broadway show "Room," starring Adrienne Warren, has been indefinitely postponed due to a money shortfall. The show had already begun rehearsals and was set to open in 18 days. The collapse was blamed on fundraising woes, with the production seeking to raise up to $7 million. "Room" is the story of a young boy raised in captivity with his mother and was adapted from Emma Donoghue's best-selling 2010 novel. This is not the first time a Broadway show has collapsed due to fundraising issues, with "Nerds" in 2016 and "Rebecca" in 2012 facing similar problems.
