I'm thinking about seeing the show in September before she leaves. She isn't the only reason I want to see the show, but it would be an absolute privelege for me to see her live. Anyone know if she calls out often?

Not often enough to worry about. Enjoy.
I believe it is pretty rare. The woman has performed on stage with broken ribs. You'll love it. The chance to see her sing A House is Not a Home is worth the ticket price alone. :)
Like everyone else is saying, she's almost never out so have a great time at the show! Oh and if you wanted to stage door you should leave during curtain call (it's easiest to do if you have an isle seat)to have any hopes of getting a good spot and getting an autograph. That place is packed and crazy!
She's also performed on stage with a neckbrace -- she won't miss unless its a pretty major illness.
On Thursday June 24th she co-hosted LIVE WITH REGIS & KELLY at 9am EST. At 5pm EST she did the CD signing at the the B&N Lincoln Center location AND she gave a 120% at the 8pm performance at PROMISES, PROMISES. I was at that performance.
Also of note, she broke her toe earlier that week AND she did not miss one single performance due to this.
The only time she has missed performances was when she had a trachea infection several months ago. She only missed like 4 performances.
^and all she did during that week was tweet about how miserable she was over missing the show. she loves the show so much, if she missed, i would be seriously concerned about her well-being!
as for stagedooring, i agree, get there quick, though i didnt have to leave during the curtain call to get a good place, but then get comfortable, she takes foreverrrrrrr. so worth it though! the cop that monitors the stage door area said she ALWAYS comes out to sign.
"The only time she has missed performances was when she had a trachea infection several months ago. She only missed like 4 performances."
Unfortunately, that's when I was in NYC! Oh well, I'll be back for Labor Day weekend.
I was actually at the performance where she broke her toe, and she didn't miss a beat. I only noticed once when she wasn't really dancing (only because I had seen a video of that number) but I didn't think anything of it at all.
That's great to hear because I'm visiting the 2nd week of Sept which is just in time before she leaves the show near the end of the month! It would certainly be a treat to finally see her live for the first time!!
