Posted: 3/26/05 at 11:58amWoman In White was announced to open at the Minskoff in the fall, but is going to open on Broadway in March, '06 instead. I suppose they could still end up at the Minskoff, but when the date change came out, the release said the show would play at a Nederlander theatre to be announced.

Posted: 3/26/05 at 12:00pmPeter Pan may be taking it.
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

No, Fortunately.
It's the Farewell production with Cathy Rigby. She retires from the role.
It's the 100th Anniversary of Peter Pan on the American stage this November 6.
If it goes Broadway after the tour, it won't be there for a long while. It'll still be open-ended, but will last no more than 6 months. My prediction is 3.

Maybe not. They don't know if it's big enough.
Exactly - it's FORTUNATE that this is the Farewell tour. Revival after revival after revival.
As much as I love the show, it was too much. However, this is a great time to end it.
