How do you find out when the star of a show will be doing their final performance? Not when the show closes, but when the main star leaves.

You stalk them.

Well, usually Playbill makes an annoucement, or if you have a specific star then ask the boards here, they'll usually tell you.

I'd like to see Patti's final performance.

since the show just opened, her final performance won't be for at least a year. and I'm guessing that the show'll close when she leaves. unless they just take a blue piece of paper, cover her name on the marquee and write "It's just Gypsy now".

Unless they can get someone really amazing to replace her.

givesmevoice- perhaps they could simply write, "Oh, damn, you JUST missed 'Patti Lupone in the role she was born to play'"

since I'm imagining all of this just written on blue construction paper in silver Sharpie, I'd say basically anything would make me laugh, trekkie.
