"Fairycakes has been such a joyous part of my life for the last year and a half, and I look forward to our last three weeks of performances and being in a theatre with people laughing together," said Beane in a statement. "I wish it had a longer run, but then I wish every show of mine had run longer. For now, hurry on down to the Village and come have a laugh. We could all use one!"
