Summary

  • Three Eternal Sunshine Tour dates in Brooklyn and Boston were pushed back after Ariana Grande said production issues made delays the safest option.
  • Technical problems on the road left the crew needing more time to build and break down the show’s elaborate staging between Oakland, Los Angeles and Austin.
  • The changes move Brooklyn’s July 12 show to July 14, Boston’s July 22 show to July 23, and Boston’s July 24 date to July 26.
  • Los Angeles’ June 13 stop had already exposed the strain on the production, with the main LED-screen curtain malfunctioning and Grande apologizing onstage.
