How to Dance in Ohio, the musical that made Broadway history by featuring a cast of seven autistic actors in its leading roles, will end its run at the Belasco Theatre on Sunday, February 11, producers announced.
When it closes, the musical, which got mixed reviews and never quite caught on with audiences, will have played 27 previews and 72 regular performances upon its closing. How to Dance in Ohio began previews on November 15 and officially opened December 19.
Produced by P3 Productions and Level Forward, is based on Alexandra Shiva’s 2015 HBO documentary of the same name, and features book and lyrics by Rebekah Greer Melocik, music by Jacob Yandura, choreography by Mayte Natalio, and direction by Sammi Cannold.
In the most recent weekly grosses available (for the week ending January 14), How to Dance took in a small $387,318, with attendance at just 63% of capacity at the Belasco.

Broadway has seen a surge in stage adaptations of popular movies in recent years, driven by the desire to attract tourists and capitalize on recognizable titles. A notable recent musical adaptation of the relatively unknown 2015 HBO documentary How to Dance in Ohio, about a group of autistic young adults, has stuck out.
Alexandra Shiva‘s documentary How to Dance in Ohio, which can currently be streamed on Max, chronicles the journey of these young adults as they prepare for a spring formal dance and work to enhance their social skills and establish independence. Now, with the real-life story brought to the stage, Madison Kopec (who plays Marideth) explained, “Parts have been embellished for dramatic purposes. You have to spice things up in Ohio.”
Similar to the documentary, the stage adaptation, directed by Sammi Cannold, focuses on a future spring formal dance, organized by group counselor Dr. Amigo, played by Caesar Samayoa.
