“Chicago” tried Thursday matinees in the past - I enjoyed them - but didn’t sell well. Was like a ghost town inside the theatre. I’m sure tkts not being open didn’t help

a musical with the music of Debbie would be heaven!
I’d say she’s most famous for the tv shows “taxi” and “evening shade”.
Shes actually done a bunch of broadway musicals - she was Marty in the original “grease!” Broadway production (also on tour), Pal Joey, Over Here! and she was the first Roxie replacement in the still running “Chicago”. She also headlined the national tour of the 90s “Annie get your gun”

How large is Marilu’s role? I read through the previous posts saw some mentions about her but not tons.

“Chicago” rush tends to be easy to get. Many many many times I’ve picked up a rush ticket after the box office has been open. No rush offered for Saturday evening performances though.
Are you a sunny in philly fan? I am. Also phillys my hometown. I’m in the same age range. No family. All the friends are married w kids and no time for theatre. Seeing things solo is my norm and it’s fine but having to comment to would be nice.

And? I was responding to that. I was just pointing out that it really isn’t that unprecedented for shows to have two tours and a bunch of other sit downs.

Chicago had two tours, broadway, London Rent had two tours plus broadway.
