The plan always was to launch a tour out of the Toronto production.

Really? I did not know that. I have seen a few clips from the show, and always thought the set was too big to tour with.

I think that the plan with the London production was that whenever it closed they were going to tour with it. Just like any show I am sure that they would be able to make sets that you could tour with.

Yeah... I guess. I knew they were planing a UK tour, but had no idea a US tour was on the back burner, especially after how bad it did in Vegas.

The original run in Toronto had a scaled down set from the original London production. When the show moved theatres recently in Toronto it was yet again scaled down even more. The intent was always to tour the original Toronto production around Canada and the US. When the show moved theatres, the original Toronto set went to the U.K. tour, and now the twice scaled down production still playing in Toronto is supposed to tour North America after the run closes.

Is the current Toronto run open-ended, or is there a set closing date?

I hope this stops here in Chicago. I mean I have heard that the book isn't good, but I have the Cast recording and I LOVE the music.
