With Exception Of 8, All Broadway Shows Closed Through Saturday

Yesterday, the welcome news came that The League of American Theatres and Producers and Local One of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (I.A.T.S.E.) would finally meet again this coming Saturday at an undisclosed location, although it's safe to say it's most definitely not with Vice President Dick Cheney.

Since the stagehands strike continues until they reach an agreement, all Broadway shows that have been impacted thusfar will remain dark through Saturday. So if you're holding tickets for the following shows this evening, Friday or Saturday (click here for ticket exchange policies), your show will not be performing:

A Bronx Tale
A Chorus Line
August: Osage County
Avenue Q
Chicago
Curtains
Cyrano de Bergerac
Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas
Grease
Hairspray
Is He Dead?
Jersey Boys
Legally Blonde
Les Misérables
Mamma Mia!
Monty Python's Spamalot
Rent
Rock 'N' Roll
Spring Awakening
The Color Purple
The Drowsy Chaperone
The Farnsworth Invention
The Lion King
The Little Mermaid
The Phantom Of The Opera
The Seafarer
Wicked

The following eight Broadway shows continue to perform during the strike because they are either in non-profit houses or are covered by other contracts:

Cymbeline
Mary Poppins
Mauritius
Pygmalion
The Ritz
The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee
Xanadu
Young Frankenstein
