Liza's Headband said:I'm not sure he will extend but yes, he is definitely contracted through Nov/Dec of this year so you'll be fine.sondheimfan3 said:I remember him saying in an interview that it's in his contract that he won't work on Yom Kippur so keep that in mind if you're considering dates at the end of September. Thanks to both of you.

I am looking at tickets for DEH for either June or September. Is it safe to assume Ben Platt has the standard 1 year contract and we'd still have a chance to see him if we wait until September? Thanks

The opening of Assassins - Hail to the Chief played like a Carnival/Circus tune.

I thought I remembered reading that John Rubinstein would leave the tour in July, but I can't find that source now. Does anyone know how long he will be with the tour? Thanks

36 of the current 40. Plus the old Mark Hellinger and Edison. I need the Cort, Circle in the Square, Ambassador and Walter Kerr.

My nephew got married in Michael Jeter's hometown last year (Lawrenceburg, TN). We went to the local museum and they had a display about Michael Jeter. My nephew's father-in-law and our guides at the museum all grew up with the Jeter boys and everyone in town went to his dad who was the town dentist. I was pleased to see the articles about Michael, and they were pleased someone knew who he was!

"Dexter on stage" Isn't that Sweeney Todd?

An entire family sat behind me at the original Pippin in 1973 eating egg salad sandwiches. Obnoxious then. Obnoxious now.

My mother-in-law saw this last week. She happened to be sitting next to Michael Andrew's mother, who said the previous night their section had been full of backers. She said it does not have the money to go to Broadway at this point.

Has there been any confirmation of when Christian Borle is leaving Peter?

In addition to these fine Ithaca College graduates: David Boreanaz '91, Kerry Butler '92, Matt Cavenaugh '01, Michele Federer '95, Jeremy Jordan '07...oh, and Gavin Macleod '52...we can now add Aaron Tveit '12!

So there you go - Creel is Elder Price...nice! I wonder if they'll limit how many extra seats season ticket holders can get...I know a lot of people who will want to see this.

Has there been any information on how long Christian Borle will be in Peter before Smash starts filming again?

Re: Rochester getting shows a year or two after Buffalo...We always wondered why at least half of our shows lag behind Buffalo by a year, so when we went on a backstage tour a few years ago we asked. Both cities have the same "Presenter". Because Buffalo generally sells better than Rochester they sometimes use Buffalo as a test to see if it's worth taking a show to Rochester. This is especially true in cases like Mary Poppins, where they would have to physically alter the ceiling to hoist her...

My first thought about Gavin Creel was "oh right - Mary Poppins". But then I thought what would be the appeal of being a replacement on tour (Mary Poppins or Memphis). So...Elder Price?

I agree about Wicked and Jersey Boys, but they are their two top sellers, so here they come again... At least Wicked isn't part of the subscription, so we have a choice.
