A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
Upon reopening, Jagged Little Pill welcomes two new leading ladies - Heidi Blickenstaff as opioid-addicted mother Mary Jane "MJ" Healy, and Morgan Dudley as MJ's adopted daughter, the creative, rebellious Frankie. A new swing and five new ensemblists also join the company upon reopening; they include Janine DiVita and recent NYU graduate Adi Roy, the latter of whom is making his Broadway debut as Phoenix.
Who’s swallowing it down tomorrow night? If you are and have thoughts / reactions worth sharing below, you, you, you oughta post.
Life is the most precious gift in the world... embrace every moment
I was at the invited dress rehearsal tonight, which went off pretty much without a hitch. Heidi is stellar. A bit more sarcasm/sassiness then Elizabeth’s MJ, but still perfectly powerful and emotional at the right times with a stellar voice. The rest of the new cast members were also incredible and will only get even better, and needless to say, the returning cast members were spectacular.
Welcome back JLP! Can’t wait for tomorrow’s grand reopening!

Curious, do they still have Jo use they/them pronouns? I was wondering if after the backlash & tony win they'd cater the role to Lauren.
I saw this last year before everything shut down. And I wish I could un-see it. I love Alanis, but this show was ugly and a total mess. It made me really sad to hear what happened to the songs of my adolescence. Alanis sings, this show just screams.

There's someone posting on Twitter and it looks like roughly 20 people outside the theater protesting.

Can't wait to see this again. Probably not until mid-November.

And how big was the protest for opening night of the newestWest Side Storyrevival?"
110-120 people with the news covering it. It was an excellent night of protest for us on a now closed forever show."
Are you implying that the protests closed the show? Because no.
