“Jane has had a scheduling conflict on her calendar for several months” producer David Binder said in a statement, “but despite many efforts to work around her schedule, we all agreed today that it is best to close on Thursday, May 21.” Fonda, he added, “is a true star whose return to Broadway after 47 years has been one of the happiest experiences for all of us: the producers, the creative team, cast and crew of 33 Variations, and the thousands of people who came to see her. We have been very proud to have been part of this historic event, and we look forward to welcoming Jane back to Broadway very soon.”

In addition to Fonda as Katherine Brandt, 33 Variations stars Samantha Mathis Clara Brandt, Colin Hanks Mike Clark, Zach Grenier Beethoven, Don Amendolia Anton Diabelli, Susan Kellermann Dr. Gertie Ladenburger, Erik Steele Anton Schindler and Diane Walsh Pianist and is directed by Kaufman. The play began performances on Broadway on February 9 and opened on March 9.
