After successfully obtaining my FINIAN'S RAINBOW and HAIR tickets, I've just received an email stating that "the following performances of FINIAN?S RAINBOW were put on sale in error and have therefore been canceled".

Sunday, October 11 at 3pm
Wednesday, October 14 at 2pm
Sunday, October 18 at 3pm
Wednesday, October 21 at 2pm
Sunday, October 25 at 3pm
Friday, October 30 at 8pm

The Sunday October 11 at 3pm performance was one of the casualities, and now I have no other opportunity to see it since shows don't play on Monday. Waaaaahhh!

Thanks. The sneak previews I've seen on YouTube have been fantastic, and I really wanted to see Cheyenne sing his two big numbers.

So the cast and crew can go and see HAIR.

Hey, KryptoniteKid, don't give up hope! The reason all those Sunday shows were cancelled during the previews of Finian's Rainbow is because they ARE PLAYING MONDAYS AT 8 PM until the show opens on October 29. I just checked Telecharge and I could buy tickets for that performance. So you should be able to buy tickets to see Cheyenne sing THREE SONGS gloriously on Monday October 12. Be sure to wait at stage door after and get Chey to sign a picture, ask any Cheyennetologist and they will tell you there is nothing finer to see or do in NYC than saying hello to Cheyenne Jackson live and in person! Have a great trip!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've just booked 2 tickets. I wish the guy whom I spoke with on the phone has TOLD me they had tickets on the Monday night, cause I said to him, "Shows don't play on Mondays in NY, do they?" and he said NO. He should have known and arranged my tickets there and then - it was a long distance call from Sydney, Australia!

I think I must be a Cheyennetologist, too. Where to I get a nice photo of him so he can sign it?

You are going to love Cheyenne in Finian's Rainbow! I am so happy you will get to see Chey sing "Old Devil Moon," "The Great Come And Get It Day" and "If This Isn't Love" as well as reprise "Glocca Mora" with the lovely Kate Baldwin. If you have access to a color printer and heavy card stock or photo paper, you can find and print lots of good pictures of Cheyenne from his official website here-

He will even pose for pictures with you at stage door. IMHO, there is not a more talented, charming, warm, funny and breathtakingly beautiful leading man on Broadway and seeing him may very well be the highlight of your trip.
Cheyennetologists rejoice at his return to the Great White Way on October 8! We rejoice with abandon! Bon voyage.

Short of seeing Cheyenne in those cut-off shorts in XANADU, this will be a wonderful introduction. How rare is it to have such a talented man with such a beautiful voice to have looks to match?? I've never seen a bad photo of him anywhere on the web.

Chey is as wonderful as he is handsome. What a guy! He makes my heart sing. And yes, he was fantastic in Xanadu, one of the funniest and best musicals ever on Broadway, and his performance was magical. Those legs, those arms, those eyes, that voice.....sigh.....only 42 more days until Finian's Rainbow opens for previews! BTW Gavin Creel also has a website with photos if you are so inclined, he is also very nice at stage door and a hugely talented fellow.
