Anyway, previews in November, opening in December. Which venues could they possibly have on lock?

Anything with a limited run in it right now: Barrymore, Belasco. Or something is closing and opening up: the Booth or the Circle.

Hudson would be open in November too since 1984 is on sale until October 8th and I don't think they have anything announced after that.

I think this would work well at the Booth, give Circle to Othello and the Hudson to Charity. But those are just my guesses.

According to some colleagues, it will be Circle in the Square. Out of courtesy to the current tenant, they won't announce it until "In Transit" announces a closing date.

Wouldn't it be interesting how Miss Saigon and Once on This Island both debuted on Broadway in the same season, and they'd be back together this fall in their same venues?

Wow. Don't tempt fate or anything but putting it in the house which held your last high-profile flop, Kenny boy...

Would it be a total shocker if "Kenny boy" purchased that house one day?

Telecharge lists Floor Seating at $45.50.  Looks like 16 seats.

Seeing as he's pretty cash poor, I'd be shocked if he had the ability to do that.

I can't seem to find any floor seats in the entire run on telecharge. Anyone have any luck?

I loved this show. PLEASE don't do it in street clothes or cut Mama Will Provide or reduce it to a cast of three or any other stripped down ideas!

Looking forward.
