Buttrio Square

Buttrio Square was a Broadway musical that premiered on 14 October 1952. William Goldman called it a "legendary production", meaning "a certain kind of Broadway show that by virtue of its birth agonies and the resulting publicity achieves an immortality most productions never dare aspire to." The production was notoriously difficult, running out of money during tryouts and only kept alive by an investment from the cast. The musical was poorly reviewed.
