When Does Applegate leave Sweet Charity? Just curious. I want to see it if she's in it! I'll be in NYC soon, so just curious.
I believe she is contracted through January. I imagine the show will close when she leaves it.
Yes, oh so sad, but oh so true!
The show just opened a month ago....I don't think she's going anywhere soon, unless Charity closes.
I'm pretty sure her contract lasts through Decemeber 31.
She's on Conan tonight, probably to try and drum up some ticket sales
Tickets are on sale through December 31 currently.

I second the show closing following her leave... I'm sure they will speculate big-name replacements, but none will emerge and the show will close (a la Hugh Jackman).

I would imagine the show will close before her contract is up. It's playing at 60 some odd percent occupancy and it's only June. Of that 60% how many tickets could possibly be full priced? The show is not in good financial shape.
I am sure the Weissler's will scramble for a replacement. A favorite hobby of theirs.
Well, by Dec. 31st, I'm sure Brooke Shields will be finished with her Chicago run........
Really? I heard from a very reliable source that Harvey Fierstein will be Christina's replacement...

Why are you touting replacements? Luke's right, if anything this show is going to close way before its time.
SOME posters (not all) are touting replacements because they are running out of nasty things to say about the show, Christina, the choreography, etc.
