Sanders.〔(Review of the Off-Broadway production )〕
The musical started pre-Broadway try-outs at the 5th Avenue Theatre, Seattle, on September 8, 2007, and had an official run from September 19 through September 30.

On September 24, 2007, it was announced that the Broadway engagement, which had been scheduled to begin in November at the Belasco Theatre, had been cancelled. The press release noted that plans for a Broadway run "will be announced when they are available." 〔("Breaking News: LONE STAR LOVE Cancels Broadway Engagement", 9/24/07 )〕 The ''New York Times'' reported that there was disagreement about the interpretation of the Falstaff character between one of the producers and Quaid and his wife (who is his manager), and that the producers felt that the show is not ready for Broadway.〔("No Broadway Outing for ‘Lone Star Love’", 9/25/07 )〕
