Full Gallop, a one-woman show about fashion editor Diana Vreeland starring Mary Louise Wilson that wowed audiences as part of Manhattan Theatre Club's second-stage season in 1995, and reopened to much acclaim at Off-Broadway's Westside Theatre, Oct. 2, 1996, is closing Aug. 30 Although newspaper ads say the show is "heading out of town," a production spokesperson said no tour dates or venues have been selected.

Wilson and Mark Hampton penned the show, which is directed by Nicholas Martin. Produced by David Stone, Amy Nederlander-Case and Barry & Fran Weissler, Full Gallop catches Vreeland at a turning point in her career. After helping define style from the 40's through the 60's at Harper's Bazaar and Vogue magazines, Vreeland was fired from her position as editor-in-chief of Vogue in 1971.

Wilson received an Obie and Drama Desk Award for her performance as Vreeland in the show's first run, in fall 1995.
