Tammy Faye, the Elton John-Jake Shears musical about televangelist Tammy Faye Bakker that opened last week to negative reviews, will close on December 8, less than a month after its official November 14 opening. In addition to the harsh reviews, box office has been disappointing, with the most recent figures, for the week ending November 17, indicating only 63% of seats at the Palace were occupied. Tammy Faye stars Olivier Award-winner Katie Brayben in the title role, with Christian Borle as Jim Bakker, and Michael Cerveris as Jerry Falwell.
