I leave for New York in the morning to check out four new musicals, the Roundabout revival of Rodgers and Hart's Pal Joey and Horton Foote's play Dividing the Estate, newly arrived on Broadway. I'm not sure how much celebrity spotting I can manage in only four days -- and the weather is expected to be sludgy and dismal. But I'll keep you posted here if anything interesting comes up.

If anyone is planning a Broadway trip over the holidays, this is truly a chance to catch 'em before they close. According to a story that ran in the The Daily Telegraph today, 15 Broadway shows are about to be shuttered, including Grease, Young Frankenstein, Hairspray, 13 and Boeing-Boeing on January 4. The pain hits close to home, too. Boeing-Boeing, produced in part by Dallas Summer Musicals and Michael Jenkins, has been a great source of pride here after winning two Tony Awards, one for Best Revival of a Play and one for Best Performance of a Leading Actor in a Play for Mark Rylance. Up on the following week's chopping block: Spring Awakening and Monty Python's Spamalot. Even Daniel Radcliffe is stripping for half-empty houses in Equus (which is scheduled to close in February). And if you want deals for family shows, Disney is offering a Kids Go Free! deal for The Lion King, Mary Poppins and The Little Mermaid for three months after January. Comments (0) Leave comment
