Alicia Keys is probably more likely to have pictures taken of her than to being taking pictures, but here she is taking pictures of fans who lined up to get their tickets and a poster signed by Keys and the cast of the new Broadway play, Stick Fly. Keys produces the show now in previews at the Cort Theatre.

Both Alan Rickman and Stockard Channing were sidelined from their shows this week, Seminar and Other Desert Cities, respectively. Mr. Rickman missed one of the final previews of his show with a respiratory infection. He returned following one day off. Ms. Channing has reinjured her knee, and has missed the entire weekend. She will require minor surgery, and should return to the Booth by the end of this week.
GOOD NEWS ON BROADWAY THIS WEEK: NEW SHOW AND EXTENSION
Another show that was to be a limited engagement, Other Desert Cities, turned out to be both a financial and critical hit. And now it is an open run, at this point with tickets on sale through March 25th.
