#1YANK! returns off-Broadway in Feb/Mar 2010

What a great start to my week!! Just posted the following Facebook update from the Zellnix on my "COMPANY Y" YANK! Fan page!
************************
Great news: after much planning (and wrangling of schedules!) we can finally announce that YANK! will be having its Off-Broadway premiere in February/March 2010 at the York Theatre!
We desperately wanted to email you months ago as the news was shaping up, and now that it appears in the paper of record 
we can put the news out there:

This will be more than a remount of the Brooklyn Gallery Players production of Oct/Nov 2007. It will be an enhanced version with new design ideas, several new cast members... and a new act 2 song!
We are tremendously excited to know that YANK! will finally arrive in style in Manhattan at such a wonderful theatre, fresh off its smash hit this season "Enter Laughing".
Lastly, we are in the midst of planning events in the city and on Fire Island to keep raising funds to make YANK! happen - please do let us know if there's anyone whom you think should be invited!
Your continued support for this musical means the world to us and the entire YANK! team.
Best,
David and Joe Zellnik
YANK! at the York

YES!
This show is absolutely brilliant. And I'm so glad Bobby remains attached.
