its total run was 78 previews and 24 performances.
Correction
The 2020 Broadway revival did not play 78 previews. Authoritative Broadway databases list the production as having 77 previews and 24 performances.
Full reasoning
This sentence appears to overcount the 2020 Broadway revival by one preview.
Two major Broadway reference sources agree on the run length:
- Playbill Vault lists the 2020 Broadway production of West Side Story with "Previews 77" and "Performances 24".
- IBDB (the Internet Broadway Database) also lists the same production with 77 previews and 24 performances.
Because both sources match on the preview count, the article's statement that the revival had 78 previews is incorrect. The correct total is 77 previews and 24 performances.
