Hello - and thanks for your question.

"Not Now, Darling" was a great success in London at the very end of
the sixties, running there for two years before opening on Broadway in
October 1970. Read more at:

"Act One 1969-1975: Getting through by the skin of our teeth." page 21

Or if you don't have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer,

It "set box office records in London and Paris before coming to
Broadway."

But it closed after only 21 performances at the Brooks Atkinson
Theatre.

I hope this answers your question. Please let me know if anything
needs clarification.
