Broadway theaters offering just 1 non-musical show next week

"The Humans," Stephen Karam's play about a fractious family's get-together, will be the only non-musical show on offer at any of the 40 Broadway theaters after the closing of "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time" on Sept. 4.

The quirk in theatrical timing won't last for long: A Lewis Black comedy show begins performances Sept. 12 at the Marquis Theatre and a revival of "The Cherry Orchard" begins Sept. 15 at the American Airlines Theatre.
