I believe the Broadway show would be taken over by another actor.>>
That was my understanding. This might complicate things, though:

By the time August comes around, "Gracie' will have likely cleared its profit
with a potentially lucrative tour in view. The awards season will be over,
obviously. It seems to me with these one-person shows -- taking the example
of the closing of Kate Mulgrew's show -- that the decision to close is not
quite as fiercely fought because the tour always beckons and it's only
one actor's job status changing. The idea of "being on Broadway" may
not seem so important. Still, I hope they get that year in on the Great
White Way. It's a great success story.
