CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Variety reports:

When the lights go up on Broadway, “Mean Girls” won’t be returning to the stage. Producers announced Thursday that the musical, based on Tina Fey’s modern cult classic, will not resume when theaters reopen.

The show will close, having played its final performance on March 11 — the day before Broadway went dark. “Mean Girls” ran 805 performances and 29 previews during its stint at the August Wilson Theatre.

Broadway is expected to remain dark through at least May 2021, having shut down last spring as coronavirus cases began to spread.
