Not surprised, but I did think it would have lasted a little longer. Does leave the Marquis open for the Spring.

I’M NOT HAPPY! I LOVED THIS SHOW! What I find weird is that Ticketmaster is still selling tickets past the date. Hmm...

You’re not kidding.   They have excellent orchestra center row L seats for Tues Jan 7 at $149 before fees.

Tootsie failed because it wasn't good. A great lead wasted in a bad show, to blame the theater is funny.

The changing of the plot to a theater actor didn't help, what made Dorothy so popular was that millions were able to see her daily on TV...Broadway would never be able to accomplish this. I also listened to the PROM prior to seeing it and loved the music which made me go see the show (great) ..again Mean Girls and enjoyed the music which made me want to see the show (again a great time in the theater)  Listening to Tootsie mmm was so disappointing and I had not interest in the show after listening to the music...so I believe that the show is closing due to a bad score/book...but props to a great lead...

I'm sure that will be rectified in short order.

Not sure how long it takes to turn the incredibly inefficient Ticketmaster machine.
