This show just continues to take my money. :)
Just got tickets for Saturday, 11/22, 5pm show. Love their 5pm curtain, as that makes it a 3 show day. Not sure who will be in the cast then. That's ok, because it's a non-stop laugh fest from the moment the curtain rises. Will be my 3rd time seeing it.

COLE will be back the question is who's after Jinx?
Bianca isn't set to continue past Aug. 2. Just curious as to why she hasn't taken a day off or a vacation during her year run?

Do we know for certain Cole will be back for January dates? Wondering if should add the show to our weekend.

Nobody knows definitively and that's a pretty long way away. I personally wouldn't necessarily bet on it, considering Escola's had quite a length of time in the role and is only going to be getting more professional opportunities now.

It's kind of a princess track- it's memorable without being very demanding. Bianca's been working for decades at this point, she clearly loves doing this, and it's a (relatively) easy and great paycheck. Good for her for being a trouper.

Totally! If I landed a track like this on Broadway, I'd hang onto it for as long as I possibly could.

But not one single personal day? I wonder if she'll use her PTO before she leaves?

If she doesn't ever feel the need to take time off, why does it matter? She'll be leaving in just slightly over a month at this point anyway.

I never thought about this, but do Broadway performers accrue PTO? Or do contracts allow a certain number of days at signing?
Or, does their PTO cash out after they leave a show?

As an equity actor on a principal Broadway contract, if you don't take any PTO, it cashes out at the end of your contract.
Didn’t know that. I thought all principal bway actors are 1099.

Stage actors are almost always put on W2s, as they receive regular salary for an extended period of time.

Equity actors tend to be W2, non equity are often 1099 (unless on a long term contract like a tour).

I think we are continuing to underestimate the legs this show continues to have, having long since recouped and showing zero signs of slowing down. This is the first Broadway play in ages that is truly printing money. Really, it comes down to the star salary and who they are able to get to keep it running. I very much doubt they will close in January.
Also, they are looking to start star/stunt casting for Abe in the near future, so that will be interesting casting to keep an eye on.
To my understanding, a Los Angeles production is in the works for early 2026, before Pinkleton has to come back to direct ROCKY HORROR in the spring. The casting is up in the air, but Conrad will not be part of it. With regards to Mary, L.A has a pool of possible performers who could assume the role, and not have to commit to a stint away in NYC to do it.
