No Sleep, Must Click & Drag

[cos]

Seeing Sleep No More for a second time last night evoked xkcd Click and Drag. I was expecting to see many of the same scenes and settings I saw the first time, with a better understanding of what was happening. I was not expecting what actually happened: spending the majority of my time seeing scenes and settings I hadn't even known were there the first time. And even though I visited at least one floor this time that I know I never ventured onto at all last time, I also know there's at least one more floor I still haven't been to. Maybe more than one.

It never closed in NYC. I don't think it has an end date.

Well, it had an end date, but after extending the engagement about 6 times, they just gave up and dropped it. :)

Sounds just like Blue Man Group when they moved into Boston :)

It didn't really have an end date.
At the start, they had the option of running for years, if sufficiently popular.

However, rather than committing crew too far in advance, they were only extending it every few months, as enough shows sold out. This also allowed them to reduce the number of times they cancel shows for special events. (club nights, private rentals, etc.)

I have not worked there in more than a year, so I'm not sure if those policies have changed.
