re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, so it's March 18, 2008 and Phantom won't be in Los Angeles until January 2009. Hmmmm.
#5

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Um, like it was always known that WICKED wasn't going to be a permanent resident production at the Pantages.

Its closing has no reflection on its popularity status or ticket sales at the Pantages.

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard that it would close by the end of this year and is moving to San Fran, but haven't heard/read any official announcement.

Rumors about that happening have been around for awhile. Supposedly it's already been scheduled to be in SF for atleast a year.

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will this be the first production of Wicked to close?

I don't think it's technically "closing."

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Legally Blonde CANNOT be playing at the Pantages in the summer. The show doesn't even go into rehearsals until mid August and the show begins its run in September.

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It had a good run for LA, and will move on to SF and hold on to one of our best touring houses for a year and force all the big touring shows into the Golden Gate.
Some people come into our lives and quietly go, others stay a while, and leave footprints on our heart, and we are never the same.
#16

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has this ever been a secret?

And the thought of nearly all the big tours going into the GG ticks me off. Put WICKED at the Gate! Never happen, I know.
#17

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This has never been a secret. When "Wicked" came back to LA, it was common knowledge that a 2 year run would happen at The Pantages.

Nothing's changed. Not real sure what the "panic" is all about.

"This has never been a secret. When "Wicked" came back to LA, it was common knowledge that a 2 year run would happen at The Pantages.

I am a bit surprised. When the Chicago production opened, they estimated a one year run and then a transfer to L.A. But when it did better than expected, they decided to let it play out. Could they just not get an open-ended agreement with the Pantages? I mean it is strange that they would already have a booking of a show that has defied all expectations well over a year in advance, when the show is still selling strong. Like I said above, they didn't expect it to run longer than a year in Chicago, so why did they determine a hard line for L.A. at 2 years?

And yes, this will be the first production of Wicked to actually close. Since it is technically not a tour, it doesn't
"transfer."

Yeah. I mean, there are kids in Darfur who live their entire lives without seeing a single exclamation mark.

Not true! The LA production of Phantom was considered the 1st national tour, even though it stayed in LA for a few years, and moved to SF for eight more before closing.

re: WICKED LA CLOSING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phantom was NOT in San Francisco for 8 years. It closed about a month after its 5th anniversary.
