She was supossed to leave on July 4 ( I think ) but she decided to stay at least until Nov. ( I'm going to see Wicked in Oct. and she's going to be in it then )
"Let the little girl go, and that poor little dog? Dodo." That's my favorite line in the whole show (Wicked). My next favorite line is "Oh! It seems the artichoke is steamed."

No, she extended her contract (as well as Joel Grey) until 1/2/05...so you have plenty of time to see her.
There are some people in the world who say that writing stories, or composing music or dancing sparkly dances is easy for them. Nothing interferes with their ability to create. While I celebrate their creative freedom, a little part of me just wants to punch those motherf*ckers in the teeth...[tos]

she was never leaving july 4...and yes, 1/2/05 will be her final performance (as far as we know, that could change) All I know is that I got my ticket...BB seat 5 
Idina: Somehow I got myself to the stage, came out at the end of the show, and I had some kind of closure.
Some guy: You looked great!
Idina: Thanks...I WAS SO HIGH! 8/21/05

Kristin, I believe, if July 18. That's also the last performance of Norbert Butz. I could be wrong, though.
I have my books and my poetry to protect me...

no, that's currently her and Norbert's scheduled departure date. *tear*

Does this set the record for the longest dormant thread being bumped?

It’s posts like these that emphasise the importance of BWW of a historical archive and why it’s so scandalous that ATC posts are deleted. Reddit isn’t old enough.
Imagine if we could go back and read comments and word of mouth of Ethel Merman in Gypsy? With BWW we can do this for shows within the time window we have data for.
I sincerely hope the owners of this website appreciate this historical significance and I think if the website was ever at risk of closing they would export the database and donate to academic theatrical institutions. I’m sure they can find SOME value in it.
Give me claws and a hunch, just away from this bunch.

genuine question for those who remember...in the thread above, it mentions Joel Grey extending with Idina. However, I believe the July 18th performance as Norbert and Kristin's last performance was also Joel's final. I remember seeing the bootleg, and Sean McCourt was the Wizard for a while. Anyone know what happened?

Bronchitis. 90% sure he didn't return to the show after this.
I was surprised when he was announced for Anything Goes years later, although there didn't seem to be any issues there so he obviously recovered.

I'm impressed somebody was even able to find a 20 year old thread on here given its crummy search functionality.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
