Posted: 10/9/08 at 11:50amGypsy was never a limited run, they just opened up a new block of tickets.
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.

Posted: 10/9/08 at 12:05pmPatti's website has her listed through the end of February and then she starts some concert dates.

Posted: 10/9/08 at 12:20pmThanks for the tip-off, Princeton. Anyone else just snag some awesome closing show tickets? Holla!

Posted: 10/9/08 at 12:28pmwait, I'm actually legit confused. Patti said in that video on the NY Post website awhile ago that she's leaving March 3rd. so...is that closing night, or is it March 1st or February 28th?

In the past, she has said March 3 because thats a year from when her contract started, but March 3 is a Tuesday in '09. And the calendar on her website has always said Gypsy until Feb 28th. I imagine they're just sort of rounding off.
I got row A too!

My friend and I have both asked Patti on separate occasions to confirm her last day in the show, and she responded saying that Sunday, MARCH 1ST is her OFFICIAL closing date.

Posted: 10/9/08 at 3:06pmYeah, I was wondering why people thought her last day wouldn't be Sunday the 1st...

Posted: 10/9/08 at 3:10pmIve never paid attention to the way ticket blocks come up for sale, or the way shows close. Is it likely that they'd have the last show on a Sunday? Will there eventually be time on telecharge where just March 1st becomes available, or would they have tacked it onto the February block?

Posted: 10/9/08 at 3:12pmSundays are common closing nights b/c it's the end of a work week for most shows.

Posted: 10/9/08 at 3:51pmYou may have bought tickets to her second to last show. They may be holding back ticket sales for March 1st which will be the last perfomance of that week. Or maybe they are ending on a Saturday night which doesn't make sense since they play a Tuesday-Sunday schedule

yeah that makes total sense, and everything thats closing right now is closing on Sundays.
everyone stay alert for when March 1st comes out!
#14re: Gypsy extends until end of February
Posted: 10/9/08 at 4:34pmSeems strange that they would not have just put it on sale until March 1st instead of February 28th.

Per La LuPone from late July 2008:
I've got six months and six weeks left on my contract. I have a fire door in my dressing room that has a prison countdown on it. It's quite colorful and fun to look at. The reason I know how many days I have left is because I am reeling from unbelievable exhaustion. I know that if I get to the top of the summit, which is the six month mark, then I'm home free. I can start coming back down off the mountain. But, what do I do after Madame Rose?

Posted: 10/20/08 at 5:05pmShe doesn't strike me as the type of actress to do anything different on her last performance in a show.
#22re: Gypsy extends until end of February
Posted: 10/20/08 at 6:30pmwell I'm gonna guess its not just her last show, but the final performance as well so it should be amazing!

Posted: 10/20/08 at 7:16pmIs there any truth to the rumor that Patti LuPone will be replaced by Idina Menzel?
