Thank you Marway. i did read that date unofficially at the 'other site' and was wondering.
Aren't they keeping it kind of quiet? Or is John Glover going in March 6? I know he has been announced for the show.

Who knows how reliable this is but, on this site: http://www.entertainment-link.com/event_details.asp?event_id=12535
it says: Bob Martin leaves the show in April, exact date TBA.

Posted: 2/25/07 at 6:48pmMy understanding is that he is leaving sooner than April.

Just posting what I found.

Thanks for doing that, SQ. That was nice of you to look.
I'm just posting what I've heard from people associated with the show. I'm sure they're not saying anything "official" on purpose.
I guess we'll find out soon!

Posted: 2/27/07 at 10:07pmWouldn't he leave on a Sunday though?
"In theater, the process of it is the experience. Everyone goes through the process, and everyone has the experience together. It doesn't last - only in people's memories and in their hearts. That's the beauty and sadness of it. But that's life - beauty and the sadness. And that is why theater is life." - Sherie Rene Scott

Posted: 2/27/07 at 11:59pmWhen does John Glover officially take over? Will it be right away, or will their be an interim Man in Chair?
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

. Martin's exit date from the Marquis Theatre has not been announced, but he'll re-create his role in the West End production in May.
Well, that doesn't really help, now does it?! I've heard both this Sunday and next Sunday. I'd like to go, but I'd like to have some sort of official word before I dole out the cash.

Posted: 2/28/07 at 5:32pmif that date is true and it is April 17th that Glover takes over, then I miss Bob Martin by 4 days :/ oh well, i'm sure Glover will be great (it should be exciting that i may see glover on only his second day!!)

Posted: 2/28/07 at 10:34pmI have a question. I saw the show last year during it's previews but didn't get a chance to go to the stage door to get any autographs. I'm going back up to NY March 30-April 4 and was going to try and get some autographs when I went back but now that Bob is leaving I don't know how to get it. Can I mail my playbill to him? Would he sign it and send it back? I've seen that thread on this site about sending stuff like that but I don't know how to do it.

Posted: 3/4/07 at 12:36amSupposedly tonight was Bob's last performance. I did the lotto yesterday so I could get to see him one last time. Well, I won, and he and Beth were both out. Jay Douglas was FANTASTIC as Man in Chair though, while Stacia Fernandez was a TOTAL disappointment as The Drowsy Chaperone. Georgia Engel got injured or sick or had some sort of emergency mid-way through the show because when Mrs. Tottendale comes out for TOLEDO SURPRISE, Linda Gabler came out in full Mrs. Tottendale gear and played her for the rest of the show. But even with the absenses, the show was magical as ever. Sutton was STUNNING and Danny Burstein should have a Tony Award on his shelf for that performance. I had tears streaming down my face at the end of the show.

TIA !

Posted: 3/4/07 at 1:40pmTesting...how would yesterday have been his last day if he wasn't even in it! From my understanding, it is the 11th as told to me by Bob himself.
Happy...Everything!
