She's supposed to leave sometime in March, I don't remember the specific date.

Her concert tour with Mandy Patinkin begins March 10 (Tuesday)at the DuPont Theatre in DE.

My guess is that her run will end around March 1 or March 8 at the latest.

They are doing a show at my alma mater even before that Delaware show:

So she might be leaving even sooner.

So is it safe to assume that Gypsy will be closing once she leaves?

Who could replace her?

there's going to be a reality show on Lifetime to find her replacement. and she's leaving on March 3rd, at least according to her tallies on the wall of her dressing room.
