I'm seriously scratching my head. I think it'll go over really well in Australia, but New York, where they have no history of heavy industry and little experience of reliance on such for the whole community? I can see it going over really well in the mid-west - Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh, though I have no idea how much they're going to have to modify it. The geordie accents aren't that strong in the play, but'll probably be nigh-on incomprehensible to an American audience. And most of the Americans in the audience did spend a lot of time looking confused whenever any mention/reliance on knowledge of the situation came up. I don't even know if a lot of the humour will work.
Ah, yay, the problem of 'some stuff works on Broadway and some stuff works in the West End'.
Where was it they toured the Full Monty adaptation? I don;t remember it being on Broadway.
