Flint’s Classic Rock – 103.9 The Fox

The Heart of Rock and Roll, the Broadway musical based on the music of Huey Lewis, is closing. The play’s final performance will be a Sunday matinee on June 23. The Heart of Rock and Roll had 24 previews starting on March 29, with 72 total performances following its opening on April 22. The musical struggled to fill the prestigious James Earl Jones Theatre after receiving lukewarm reviews by critics, and was shut out of Tony Award nominations.

“Special gratitude to the support and participation of the iconic music legend Huey Lewis,” producer Hunter Arnold shared in a statement. “We were honored to have an amazing cast and crew who brought their immense enthusiasm, commitment and talent to each and every performance. With our original cast album just released and talks underway for a national tour and international productions, the musical will continue to delight audiences for years to come.” (Deadline)
