Well she was on last night and the matinee today. Alongside Dylis Croman.

 

They have exhausted the understudies as there are too many cases. Same situation Aladdin was in.

 

I’m simply sayin be honest so we all know whats happening.

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.

@Troy, I am not sure what you are suggesting is not honest. This is the precise AEA/League protocol.

@Jordan, again, what happened is what's supposed to happen and it is working so far so good. No epidemiologist knows the characteristics of Omicron yet and it certainly has not gained a foothold yet in the US. Please do not post things you don't know or understand.

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.

I saw what Fauci said. I am just encouraging you not to overstate; it's not helpful to anyone. Right now public health officials are attempting to interdict a foothold. And we don't know about transmissibility or lethality. Scientists feel the vaccine is effective against it, but it requires additional study.

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.

Curious to see if they have a show tonight.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

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.

I think folks would be surprised how quickly svog money has been spent. 
 

It was an essential program but not well thought out. Haste really does make waste.

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.

I agree with Blaxx.  While there is cause for concern and caution, "Chicago" and its endurance reminds me of Cher.  Both are equally indestructible.
