It's always useful to consider the future life of a production. The History Boys is a great example of the National Theatre’s long-running shows: it's been staged on Broadway and twice in the West End, has toured the UK three times and once around the world. When a production runs for a long time, it can be constantly developing, and many new things can be discovered over time.
