Would you be so kind as to tell us who the other understudies are?

They aren't in the Playbill because, presumably, they didn't hire the understudies until Omicron started wreaking havoc. It's possible that the understudies won't be in the Playbill until next month. Possibly not until February, even, if they missed the deadline for the January printing.

Come From Away has cancelled both shows today.

I have to assume one of the standbys tested positive and they won't be able to go on for the rest of this week. Holly Ann Butler said she was supposed to play Janice again today, then a few minutes later announced they were cancelled.

Not necessarily Broadway, but the Chase Center in San Francisco just mandated that, beginning Feb 1, 2022, all patrons 12 and over will have to have been fully vaccinated with booster.

Under 12 will need full vaccination or a negative antigen (within 24 hours) or PCR (within 48 hours).

Wonder if this might soon come to Broadway?

Sutton Ross said: "It's absolutely heading that way."

Feb 1st seems optimistic to do that on broadway. I think people are still slowly seeking out the booster.

Just checked telecharge for January - this is not selling!

(definitely worth a full watch, although some of the info might be outdated already, as this was from 2 weeks ago)

"

I think any New Yorker that wanted to see this show likely has by now. Don't think they'll get the tourists this winter, so I wonder how much longer the producers will hold on to it."

Did they receive SVOG funds?

That's true - January in general is a tough month for Broadway but this January is not looking good for advance ticket sales for many and I bet producers pull the plug and close - TINA, Come from Away, Girl from the North Country and Mrs. Doubtfire.

MJ is cancelled tonight due to non-COVID illness. Previews resume New Year’s Day
