Hi everyone!

Just a quick question. In the week of Thanksgiving does broadway generally still run a full eight show week? I assume the schedule just might be a bit different? I'm coming over from Australia for a theatre holiday (fares are extremely cheap right now) so just wanting to check.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the links LizzieCurry, I was having trouble searching on mobile.

And geez, I did do a quick google, but I was making sure it was the usual trend every year. Don't want to fork out $1400 AUD to be disappointed.

They usually do 8 shows that week, but the schedule is different. They may cancel the Thursday show, but add a show on Monday or add another matinee. Also, this is a huge week for attendance and grosses. May want to start early to get best seats.

Great!! Thank you for the information! I'm guessing there will be less discounts floating around?

Yes, often Thanksgiving weekend blacks out discount offers. But not of all shows.
