Coming home? I'm assuming (optimistically, perhaps) that it WILL come. I don't know where they are in process, but previews were to start on Nov. 23rd. Guessing THAT'S not gonna happen. Any word...?

I'm not even sure if they managed to get their set loaded into the theater before the strike (and load-in takes a week by itself) -- let alone had time for tech or anything.

I wouldn't expect them to be able to start previews until at least a week after the strike is over -- which at this point won't be any time soon since neither side is even talking to the other.

Expect previews to be pushed back into December at the earliest and for the opening to be postponed to a month after that.

This makes me sad, since it's a limited run to begin with.

Not sure what the actors schedules are, but perhaps it might be possible for the show to have an extension to make up for some of the performances lost to the strike.

In my Theatre History class we just studied Harold Pinter. I'd love to see this show. I hope it plays out its full engagement, so I can catch it on my springbreak.

This makes me sad...I have a ticket to the first preview, which happens to be my birthday. Boo.

I'm supposed to go the first week in December.

Let's just hope that the League and Local One can work out their differences soon.

For purely selfish reasons, of course. I want me some Raul!
