The production, which launched at New York City Center before transferring to Broadway, proved that a succès d’estime could also be an emotionally stirring hit.

“Parade,” Alfred Uhry and Jason Robert Brown’s 1998 musical about a historic miscarriage of justice involving a Jewish man wrongly accused of murder in the Jim Crow South, was considered a succès d’estime.

But that didn’t make it a succès d’estime.

Still, it was more succès d’estime than moneymaker.

The show became the succès d’estime and de scandale of the London season, and in 1965 moved from the West End to Broadway.
