Chicago the Musical Appreciation Thread — Page 90

I found this photo posted on IG last night, it does look like Amra Faye is on and someone that’s not Anna, assume it’s Dylis as mentioned above, crazy that no one else mentioned it prior to tonight.

Shame this is happening to them; unfortunately, we may be seeing some more of this, given waning vaccine immunity among those who have not received their booster shots, combined with the newly-named omicron variant (more transmissible, but so far not more lethal) that may have already gained a foothold on the United States.

May have gained a foothold, Hogan. Fauci said the exact same thing earlier today. It could already be in the U.S., but nobody knows for sure just yet.

Anyone who tests positive is immediately retested. If the retest confirms the positive result, everyone gets retested. It was a while ago since I last inquired, but I believe all the retesting utilizes a lab PCR and not the rapid PCR. (The Schoenfeld Theatre, to my knowledge, is the only theater that has everyone tested with the more accurate lab pcr test twice weekly and not the rapid test, though that means they are working one or two shows not knowing of they are infected).

Hi...

I am simply suggesting and noting, when they had the first 3 cases in the show, they should have cancelled and disclosed to the cast. They did not. Not even in the show reports.

Chicago will indeed resume Broadway performances tonight. Listed on TKTS like usual.

Amra-faye Wright and Dylis we're inserts all last week. Curious if they'll be both in the show tonight.

Man, PR for the show has been two thumbs down since reopening. I have gotten no social media notification that those performances are cancelled. Same with Saturday night.

This show is really just asking to close.

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if it happens in January.


Sorry, but CHICAGO's not going anywhere. They have $10M in SVOG, and that's going to buy them a LOT of time. In addition, there are no producers beating down the doors to get their show into the Ambassador.

I don't know. The show is playing to 50% capacity houses now. With no names lined-up for the Winter, it'll be even worse.

Over a decade ago, posters craving this show to close seemed vile and cruel. Now it's just laughable and pathetic.

Producers certainly have had the last laugh over the envious nobody queens.
