Yes. But don't expect Disney to say anything about it until they're ready to release it (and who knows how long that will take).

Since the UK production will be recorded, I assume the production will be at least the same as Broadway, or with even better elements here and there. But then again, Disney might think they can get away with filming the touring version

ahhrealmonsters, you can also check out the movie, a really superb adaptation for the screen (with John Cameron Mitchell himself as Hedwig)

I said they would run away if someone involved mentioned lawyers and my post was deleted. Is lawyers a bad word, BroadwayWorld?

With Soul now being their major December release, I think it might have moved

NBC Broadway Special? Nov 18
2020, 05:32:36 PM
Those were the musicals they got? Disney couldn't even get Aladdin to promote the recording? No Wicked, Phantom (really, it can be two people singing to a pre-recorded track and a projected background THEY ALREADY HAVE), Six, Come From Away... disappointing. I'm glad James Snyder will (probably) get another bit of his Harry recorded, however.

They will either **** bricks whenever someone mentions lawyers and don't publish it or it will be so laughably bad no one will take it serious and it will ruin potential serious reporting on the issue

Ryan Murphy talks THE PROM, A CHORUS LINE limited series, and GEORGIA MCBRIDE adaptation for Netflix Nov 12
2020, 06:04:58 PM
I'm thinking maybe each episode will focus on one of the dancers, and the episode will revolve around the actual story (with trademarked Ryan Murphy touches, of course) that is behind their songs on the musical, and sing it at the end of the episode.

Phantom to change to Nov 2

Lot666 said: I can easily see CamMack using the last U.S. tour production elements. If this happens, I'm done."
Can it with that tour, will you? You've been all over this thread talking about that widely hated tour despite people saying that it wasn't going to happen, now it's confirmed that isn't going to happen and you still won't shut up about it. Geez, stop being overfixated on it.

Phantom to change to Oct 31
2020, 04:33:03 AM
I think Broadway is safe because they don't have a 'modern' replica 9n the US just sitting there and ready to load in like they did in the UK. So, besides load out and load in, they would also have to front a whole new production out of nowhere. Unless they take one of the replicas in storage (like the one that was in Brazil until 2019 -- I don't think it was sent to any other country), but those are also on the older side, so I don't see the benefit of replacing it.

Phantom to change to Oct 30
2020, 09:12:38 PM
I still don't think it will be purely the new tour. I'm willing to bet elements of it that were deemed 'difficult' to travel will be added back in, like the angel and the proscenium (the orchestra, unfortunately, is a goner)

17 Again: The Musical Oct 21
2020, 10:01:26 AM
It's as simple as there is someone paying for a Japanese production and there isn't anyone paying for an English production. Opening somewhere (LITERALLY anywhere) is miles better than just never opening because you're waiting for the money to come in. If it's a hit there, they might end up getting someone to pay for a Broadway production. If it isn't a hit, at least they have a big production before delivering everything to MTI.

Ok, I'll produce it. What name do you want to see credited as "original idea by"? Do I have to run it by your agent?
