Appeared in one of the all-time monumental flops on Broadway, the 1982 revival of George M. Cohan's "Little Johnny Jones" (the show that James Cagney's Oscar-winning Cohan performs while singing "Yankee Doodle Dandy" in the eponymous 1942 film), which was pitifully old-fashioned and out-of-date, even in those early years of Reaganism. The show opened at the Alvin Theatre on March 21, 1982 after 29 previews and closed that same day for a total of one (1) performance. Only those shows that close without ever having officially opened (that is, during previews) have done worse.
