Miss Saigon is closing in January, no? War Paint could probably last till January, similar to patti's gypsy.

War Paint I imagine will last a while regardless of any accolades, I'd say New Years depending on their advance/if Patti and Christine stay for that long.
Bandstand has been slowly climbing, though I don't know if it's got a huge appeal to tourists. I'd say at least till 4th July, maybe Labor Day.
Groundhog Day has been steady this far and is a well known movie. It'll probably stay during the summer living on families and tourists.
Cats I can see hanging around till at least the 1 year mark and bill it as though it were a limited engagement from the start.
On Your Feet should have closed but will probably have money thrown at it to get through the summer.
The shows I think will probably fold soon after any cast changes are Kinky Boots and Waitress, unless they bring in another box office draw to replace Urie.
Anasatasia and Bronx Tale have been critic proof and award proof. They'll easily finish out the year. Then it could be anyone's guess

I saw it and really liked it and the audience response the time I went was very good. I agree it may not have huge tourist appeal and since it did not get bunch of Tony nominations, it has to depend on marketing and word of mouth. I hope it will last awhile but will not be surprised if it closed by end of the year.

Dear Evan Hansen is certain to close if it doesn't win the Best Musical Tony, right?

I can't imagine Indecent will last much longer past the Tonys.
