Anybody know August vacation dates yet?

I'm planning to be in New York from Aug 8-14. Does anyone know when scheduled absences might be published for Fiddler, The Color Purple, The Humans, or Waitress?

I see on Telecharge that Cynthia Erivo is scheduled to be gone from today for a few days, but nothing is posted for later in the summer on Telecharge/TM (where relevant) or the show websites. When would this normally go up/how late should I wait to buy tickets if my heart is set on seeing Burstein, Erivo, Headley, all of The Humans cast, and Mueller?

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks.

I'm sorry to tell you that scheduled absences aren't even always published. Also, there's always the chance that the actors you're looking to see may be sick. You can wait until later if you want, but as of now, I haven't heard anything about vacations. Cynthia probably will be there as she's on vacation this week.

Oh yes, sorry--I know they won't necessarily all be published, especially since not everybody's above the title anyway. And yes, of course random absences happen :)

It couldn't hurt to call some of the ticketing services and ask. If they happen to know, I don't think they'll hide that information from you. These days social media seems to be a more reliable indicator than trying to find these things out in a straightforward way.
