Oops! In what’s being deemed by critics a “costly misfire,” the Britney Spears-themed musical ‘Once Upon a One More Time’ has already come to the end of its time on Broadway despite just opening on June 22.
Details inside…
According to the New York Times, the critically slammed jukebox musical – which featured some of Spears’ greatest hits like ‘Toxic,’ ‘Baby One More Time,’ and ‘Circus,’ – failed to ring in steady audiences.
Designed to be a “feminist fairy tale” that told the Pop princess’ rise to emancipation, the show – which is not an official Britney project but did reportedly get her blessing – may have fallen flat on the critical and commercial front but that hasn’t stopped its producers from considering an international tour.
“We could not be prouder of this beautifully joyous and exhilarating show — which is not only a love letter to Britney’s iconic artistry and singular effervescence, but also a brilliant display of the boundless talent of our cast and creative team,” said producers James L. Nederlander and Hunter Arnold in a joint statement. “We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to this dream team of collaborators, performers, designers, staff, crew, and investors who continue to share our passion and joy for this project. As plans take shape for the show’s future life around the globe, we’re excited to share more news soon!”
At writing, the team has not delivered a specific date on the show’s next iteration.

All that hard work for nothing. It looks and sounds hideous though.
shut it down, b:itch! you are irrelevant.
Crackhead Spears is so desperate for money but not putting any efforts. LAZY HO
Do you just read the titles of a story and not the actual story? How is she desperate for money when it’s not something she was involved in? Reading is fundamental and mind is a terrible thing to waste……. SMH
B:itch! She is so lazy as you said she wasn’t involved but she can still get royalties since it’s under her name. You dummy c u n t! Thanks for taking time to read my comments tho.
