No way it's closing. Plus, it's selling tickets through January 31st, 2010. I don't know where you got July 8th from.

Ticketmaster is selling tickets way into 2010.

Maybe, the site was down when you looked at? Who knows?

Maybe it was just messed up for a second, because I just checked and they're selling through July at least (I didn't check past then)

Closing because it sold 93% of its tickets this week? Or because it sold 101% last week?

What a night! I was in more laps than a napkin!

That was my laugh of the night. West Side Story is not closing anytime soon.

There is no way in hell Legally Blonde will comeback to the Palace ever.

Then can LB go to the Bway when the dreaded SHREK closes

Or how about the Nederlander since it's dark

Brighton Beach Memoirs/ Broadway Bound (in rep) has booked the Nederlander.

Yankeefan, you got the tickets you wanted, so why can't you change the heading of this thread?

No. The Bway is BIGGER than the Palace. Shrek is making bank compared to when Legally Blonde was open.

LB ISN'T coming back...no matter what closes. It doesn't work that way. If LB was making money BEFORE WSS came to town, it wouldn't have left.

Legally Blonde would still be open right now if it played a smaller theatre.

Hm well maybe not, but it would of definitely had a much longer run than it did. It wasn't even doing that bad, it was just not filling in enough seats for the huge ass Palace.

Yankee, I was just thinking about Gilda Radner the other day when Lee Radziwell walked into the restaurant I was having dinner in. Except, it wasn't Emily Litella I was thinking of. It was Roseanne Roseannadanna.
