January is a notoriously difficult month for Broadway financially, and that will never be truer than in 2009, when the combination of economic woes and tourist scarcity is expected to shutter seven musicals. Be on the lookout for discounted day-of-show tickets for these at New York's TKTS booths, as well as show-specific promotions. ("Hairspray," for instance, holds a daily lottery for $25 tickets in the theater's first row.) Here's a guide to what's leaving and when.
