According to Foster Hirsch's book Kurt Weill on Stage: From Berlin to Broadway, the production gave 69 preview performances, but we believe that number is incorrect. Given the performance schedule, and the starting and final dates of previews, 77 seems to be the correct total. We have found no evidence that any previews were canceled, once they actually started (after two postponements).
