From Facebook page "The producer's have decided to end the run early. This decision was made at the producer's discretion and we're not party to any more information than this." Bad reviews?Low ticket sales?

Ya' win some; ya' lose some. I doubt that this will hurt Brown's career very much. Financially, maybe, but it would take more than this to tarnish his rep. I'm sure that he'll be back with a hit sometime soon.

Babe Ruth said something about not letting the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game. I wonder if those who want to criticize Derren so robustly would have Booood the Babe every strikeout he has? Because he has WAY more strikeouts than home runs. Reggie Jackson has almost 2,600 career strikeouts in his career and he is Mr. October! Those who are just so anxious to dump all over those attempting to be creative usually aren’t. Yes people fail. Life happens. Why be happy in the missteps of others is my question? Danny Doyle <BR>Semper Occultus <BR>In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act....George Orwell
