Try this:
Set Evaluation criteria to :  When a record is created, or when a record is edited and did not previously meet the rule criteria
Set the Rule: Closed equals False
Set the Time Trigger to 1 day after Close Date
Create your Field Update to change the Stage. (The Field update must be added to the Time Dependent actions)

AND
(CloseDate =19/04/2014,
OR
(ISPICKVAL( StageName ,"Close"),

write a trigger because we can't write formula for picklist in workflow.

Hi Chandra,

I just tested it myself. All you have to do is create a workflow with evaluation criteria: Created and everytime its edited
Your criteria would be: Closed Date > greater or equal > 2014-04-19,
then you would create a workflow action with field update and change the status in it.

Hope that helped!

Thanks!
