Is that what this is about? (I have no idea if these things are pre-taped.)

He will be there live in the studio in LA. Sunday is the camera block day for DWTS, so I assume he will be there for that vs. in JB.

Has anybody been to the show as of late? Interested how Ballas has been developing in the role, as I'll be returning in January. Happy to see that it's selling particularly well as it reaches the end.

I saw Mark a couple weeks ago and he was excellent. I'd never heard of him before (I don't watch DWTS), so I can't say I had any expectations. Strong voice, obviously a great dancer, enthusiastic actor who looked like he was having the time of his life up there.

Final performance this Sunday!
Random question: does anybody think they could have a special/commemorative playbill at the closing performance like several other long-running shows have distributed at their closings?

Bumping—three performances left on Broadway!

Wonder if they'll do rush on Sunday...? I know their final lottery was today.
Do they do SRO? Also wondering if they'd do that Sunday. Dying to see it on closing night but $177 is steep for back of mezz.

They do SRO when it's sold out, which it has been. They may not offer it for closing night, though.

Was JLY there ?

Set wise never looked an expensive show to run, so surprise they haven't transferred to off Broadway, such as New World Stages or the Little Shubert.

it ran for 11 years & has been very successful on tour & in Vegas. No need to move it off-Broadway. This show will play nearly every regional theater across the U.S.

I wasn't at the show tonight, but I was there last night, and the show closed in incredible shape. I really hope this is not Mark Ballas' last show on Broadway (or that we have to wait too long). His ACTORY faces could be a bit much, but he is a joy to watch and an amazing triple threat.

Doubtful. He didn't even attend the 10th anniversary, even when the rest of the original cast and other past cast members did.
Though he does have shows coming up in NY. He also changed his Facebook banner to the current JB marquee.

JLY was not in attendance yesterday, nor do I believe either of the other original principal leads. The show was sensational as always. Ballas was exuberant and joyful, even if I hope he refines his acting chops a bit before his next Broadway gig. "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" through the "Who Loves You" finale was emotional as hell.
The curtain call welcomed the entire creative team to the stage and featured a number of speeches from book writers Elice and Brickman, someone who I believe was a lead producer, and finally, a few remarks from Frankie Valli himself, who was clearly overcome with emotion. It was a touching end to a landmark show.
