<p>Unfortunately, Broadway is not immune to the machine that drives television and movies and even theme parks. Whenever there is a new success (re: SPRING AWAKENING, HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL, any reality show) everyone rushes to jump on the bandwagon in hopes of cashing in on the trend. This is most likely the case with GLORY DAYS. The machine is indeed very enticing and it is unfortunate that these kids got caught up in it - however, not surprising. I am sure that they will bounce back from this - and, hopefully, are now a bit wiser.</p>
