Bringing this to people's attention again:
ERinVA wrote:Funny you should mention it. I have been waiting to propose a forum get together at Vito's By the Park between shows on Saturday. Here's their website: http://www.vitosct.com/park.htm

Once I know who wants to come, I'll call for a reservation. The Saturday matinee, which begins at 2:00, should be over at around 4:45, and the evening performance begins at 8:00, so I think a reservation for 6:00 PM should work.

PM me if you would like to add your name to the list for Vito's By the Park on Saturday, June 22. I'll keep a list, and a few days prior to that Saturday, I'll call to reserve space.

I see that Vito's has parking after 5 pm for $5.00 (Trumbell Center Garage). Those coming with cars could park there for dinner, and walk to the Bushnell, killing two birds..............

This map is a useful parking guide....

I know that Sunday eve in Hartford is not “Officially” the last show for the tour but it sure looks like it. I was wondering who might star in that final show (Ben would have been my choice but that won’t happen.) I also wonder if there will be former Billies and former cast at the show ? Will there be something special done at the end of that show? The possibilities are exciting. I am so glad I got my tickets early.

Joe, I operate in these uncertain cases on a 'no news is good news' basis. Until we are told what the ultimate situation will be, I remain hopeful that the tour will continue at some point in the future.

With the exception of Peoria, the performances appear to have been well supported this year. That can only be a positive factor for the bean counters to take on board.

But....will there be only three Billys once Ben departs? I suppose it could work out for a few weeks. No doubt time will present the answer.
