These song lists document any changes that the production went through aside from the opening night song list.
See MoreDifferent sources give different performance totals for the run. Some sources did not deduct the correct number of canceled performances due to the musicians strike in September and October 1975. One source made the further mistake of adding the previews to an incorrect total of post-opening performances. In addition, that source had the wrong number of previews.
As far as we can tell, the correct total number of performances (not including previews) was 907, following 25 previews, not 24, as erroneously stated in some sources.
