A friend and I were talking tonight, and we felt as though we had both heard at some point that Chita Rivera: The Dancer's Life was going to tour... but then we couldn't find anything that said that. Has/had anyone else heard that rumor? Is it something that isn't going to happen, or is it something that is a definite?

Wait till it opens on Broadway.

Do you think they would announce it around the time that it does open? (The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to decide if I should go ahead and attempt to see it in New York, or just wait for the tour. Waiting for a tour sure would save me a LOT of $$...)

Chita has a pretty good track record of touring ALL her big hits - and I am too sure this will be no exception. By the way, Some critics have wrote that her tours even top the OBC of the same show - and in seeing both (Kiss of the Spiderwoman) I must agree, she gives 100% and more everytime she is onstage, You Go Chita!!

If it does tour, I doubt it will be a full out, 50+ city national tour. I'd think it'd be similair to the tour of 700 Sundays - just the big theater cities (LA, Chicago, Boston, Toronto, etc). I'd LOVE to see it.

I just want to see it open first. I'm interested to see what the reviews will be. I'm sure they'll all be great.

By the way, I'm sure this has been posted, but I really like the video screen in front of the theatre showing old clips of Chita. I was walking to DRS when I noticed it. I wish I could have watched all of it.

a big video screen? I wish they had pics of that, that sounds interesting.

Its just a normal sized video screen outside the Schonfeld(sp?). It was fabulous just standing there with around five to six other people watching her and Gwen dance the Hot Honey Rag. I honestly can not wait to see it Dec. 2nd!!!

Just as a side note, they had the screen up when Brooklyn was playing.
