According to telecharge the last performance of 33 variations is Thursday May 21. I just wanted to verify if this is correct since most shows conclude their run on a Sunday. Also, if it is indeed the last show, does anyone know why it is ending on a Thursday as opposed to going through the weekend and ending on the 24th. Thank you.

Jane Fonda is participating in a fundraiser in the Galapagos (I believe) and leaves Friday morning. This, as I understand it, was in her contract to begin with, though they just hadn't told anyone.

I am not sure, but perhaps this is due to Jane Fonda's schedule?
By the way, I just checked ILoveNYTheater.com, and they say the closing performance is May 24:

It was announced a day or so ago that it was closing early. Supposedly, they were "trying" to work around it and that's why they waited so long to make the final decision.
