They'll have to extend because he won't be able to shut up.

I hope they film this one too. His last Broadway special is one of my favorites.

Considering that nothing is scheduled right after this, I definitly see it extending. I would expect those 5 dates to sell out quickly.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Yes -- and to preemptively answer the question that is bound to be ask, don't hold your breath for any discounts.

Schweet! Anybody have any idea about prices? I can't find anything anywhere...

Well I now have a new most anticipated show of the spring!!
There isn't a page up yet on Ticketmaster and Williams' site has absolutely no information about this yet, so we probably won't know ticket prices until they go on sale Sunday.

Five-minute break? What are you a construction worker? Woo hoo! Hey, baby, I'm not gay. Does this dress make my ass look fat? Hmmm! Five minute break!

A little bit more info can be found on the Fansite
RW's official site and sometimes Ticketmaster are a little late and incomplete when providing information...

Here's a link to the page for the May 1st performance on ticketmaster, which I bookmarked for use tomorrow morning:

A poster on ATC also mentioned that there are tickets for $151, $101 and $71, so at least there's a bit of a range.

Hopefully this'll pave the way for my "RV: The Musical" libretto to get produced.

Just got my ticket for May 1st. Row O in the mezzanine for $70. I went back and checked what $100 would get me and Row S in the orchestra on the aisle popped up. I'm kinda regretting going the cheap route, but whatever. Regardless, I'm excited to see this.

His last show in 2002 was pretty funny. What kind of show is it? Is he doing stand-up?
#24
Posted: 3/1/09 at 11:39am
Yes, it's basically a stop on his stand-up tour.
