Posted: 10/1/08 at 8:57amIs anyone going to see Shewing-Up of Blanco Prosnit (sp?) at the Gramercy Arts on October 20? It's a one-performance-only reading of a little-known Shaw play -- and Cheyenne is playing the lead. I did a thesis on Shaw way back when, but this is one of the plays that I never got around to reading. I've ordered a copy.

I remember going into the Helen Hayes right after they opened the doors to let the crowd go into the Theater. There were maybe 3 or four people who looked "professional" taking pictures. I am also waiting for some coverage to show up.
I do have some photo's of the final curtain call but I don't want to get into any controversy thing with no photography in the theaters and what not.

Posted: 10/1/08 at 1:16pmI believe the professionals were doing the photos for an article to appear in a business magazine about Xanadu. I know, because I was one of the people they were shooting. I'd been called a few days before to give an informal interview; next day, they wanted to put a picture of me in the sidebar of the magazine. These people were not connected with the show.

"What I want to know is where is the final curtain call photo coverage from BroadwayWorld.com?"
That's exactly what I've been wondering!

Posted: 10/1/08 at 2:51pmIf you love XANADU, don't walk past the theater. It's back to being boring and wooden. All that is up is the main marquee. It's really sad.

Posted: 10/1/08 at 2:57pmI'm in NYC on Saturday for Billy Elliot -- I usually eat at Sardi's and it's going to be heartbreaking for me to see a Xanadu-less Helen Hayes. Just when I thought I'd recovered, I KNOW I'll start crying all over again. HUZZAH you glorious show!!!!!

Yeah, West Village, I was thinking the same thing.
She looks *very* Margo Channing!

lol... OMG. She does look like Margo Channing in that picture!
Great pics everyone, thanks for posting them...
I am so upset Xanadu closed. I had just become a huge fan of this show 
And I was wondering the same thing too... broadwayworld usually does a good job at keeping stuff updated, I was hoping they would've posted pics of the last performance's curtain call by now. Does anyone else have any more pictures?
