Was just wondering if there's an official date yet, as I'm planning to book tickets for the end of July/first week of august and was wondering if they will still be there. I've searched the message board but couldn't find anything about dates.

I haven't seen an official announcement about Sutton leaving yet, but here is an article on Maureen's departure. It doesn't state a specific "end" date for her, but the Little Women tour that she's headlining is supposed to start performances August 30th:

Posted: 4/28/05 at 8:36amI seriously doubt that they'll leave before the show closes. They can't do the show without Sutton and Maureen. That's not official but that's what I think.

If grosses don't pick up, they may leave when the show closes. I can't see how this one is going to make it through the summer months even with them in it.

Posted: 4/28/05 at 9:49amDoes anyone know how much money they need to take in to meet their weekly operating expenses? At what point does it become to expensive to even go week-to-week?

i don't think it will hold up without them either.
i am a HUGE sutton fan, and i really have only gone to see the show as much as i have to see her perform. i think she is fantastic in the part, and it's hard to see anyone taking over that role and really making it work. i can see this being much the same way with maureen.
i just hope that when/if the show closes, sutton moves into something else quickly so that we all have the opportunity to see and hear her!

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:21amI've seen both Sutton and her understudy, and boy did that shaky vehicle show it's flaws without her.

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:22amLet's be honest - the show displays its numerous flaws even with her in it.

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:26amI enjoyed it, flaws and all. Maureen and Sutton miraculously held it together--it's simply a dead stage without them.

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:28amas did i...but i definitley think i enjoyed it because of sutton and maureen. i would be super upset if i bought tickets in advance and got there to find that one or both of them were not there (hence why i love the $30 student seats, so i can go same day and ask before buying).

Posted: 4/28/05 at 11:02amMy prediction -- it's only holding on until the Tony's. I don't think it will win any of them and will probably close late mid- to late-June. If there weren't so many strong female performances this season, Sutton would probably win, but that still wouldn't be enough to keep the show going.

Posted: 4/28/05 at 11:50ami'm still hoping for sutton to nab the tony. it's going to be tough, but i can definitley see her winning it.

I hope/expect that Sutton will win a best Leading Actress tony, but I definitely think that Maureen will get a best supporting Tony. She's phenominal.
I love this show, but I with the grosses they've had I can't imagine they'll stay open much longer.
