Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:18pmPlaybill.com just issued a discount advertising that "last 6 weeks to see Angela Lansbury in Blithe Spirit," offering the discount as valid through July 19th. Anyone heard anything else?

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:21pmIt was always scheduled to close on July 19.

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:21pmIt was always announced as a limited run thru July 19. What is the confusion here?
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:27pmIt was actually never announced as a limited run; I remember originally seeing "open-ended" in a variety of places like Playbill.com.

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:31pmI recall the July 19th closing date being announced almost from the start. The original advertising may have stated "limited run" but didn't give a date.

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:32pmWoops. I guess I hadn't heard that. In my defense though, playbill.com still has it listed as open-ended.

Posted: 6/4/09 at 5:35pmEveryone makes mistakes. Take a look at the news item on BWW about Jake G doing the movie of ROCK OF AGES. See how his name is spelled.

Posted: 6/4/09 at 7:01pmUmm, what's wrong with the spelling of Jake's name? or was it spelled wrong before and they fixed it?
