I’m planning to come to the city and see a bunch of shows 5/17-5/21, and I was banking on getting to see OOTI on the Sunday 7:30pm performance, but much to my dismay, it looks like for some strange reason there’s no performance that night?!? Does anyone know why there’s not? Their usual schedule is 2 shows on Sundays, and that week, they’re only performing 7 shows...? I’m super bummed out!

They added an evening show the Wednesday before, the 16th. And it actually looks like they'll be doing 11 shows in succession without a day off between the 15th and the 23rd, which is crazy.

The Annual Broadway League Spring Road Conference is during the week the third week of May (the week of the 14th to the 18th) This brings in just about all of the major touring presenters, and, more importantly, the 100+ road presenters who are also Tony voters. Many shows attempt to maximize their performance availability while these folks are in town, both finalizing their touring seasons for the next 2-4 years, and seeing all the major players before they cast their vote.
