RippedMan said: "Evita ran at the Broadway for awhile. So if a shows good... it’ll run..."

And the first run of Les Mis before it transferred and of course, the original Miss Saigon run

But it hasn't really been able to keep a show there very long since Saigon closed in 2001

I'm anticipating West Side Story making an announcement soon. Six might hop in, though I know the producers are really going back and forth on whether to run it at New World Stages are gamble on Broadway.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dreamgirls and/or Titanic make announcements. Both were very close to transferring last season and could still be eyeing transfers.

Maybe Company from the West End as well? Or Everybody's Talking About Jamie?

Beaumont is opening up soon too. Is there anything lined up for that yet? I still think Marie or Titanic would be great there.

Does The Inheritance have a theater announced?

Really hope we see Company transfer this fall.

What about Sweet Charity? Didn't one of the producers of that 2016 Off-Broadway revival say in an interview they were going to transfer in for the 2018/2019 season, I think? Could they be still eyeing a transfer?

fwiw, I didnt mean that the right property couldnt run there (Color Purple and Cinderella both had respectable runs, no?) just that what I have seen there (Fiddler, Shrek, Promises come to mind) suffered from the oversize.

I don’t think Sutton has time for Sweet Charity anymore. She was fantastic though.

Considering Sutton Foster is already attached to THE MUSIC MAN and also still have her TV show “Younger”, is probably rule this out

Beaumont is empty but is expected to be taken by The Lehman Trilogy I believe.

I thought Jagged Little Pill was going into the Barrymore.  Where is that one going?

is SIX still rumored for the Longacre? I just can't see it not being there for some reason. Seems like a perfect fit for it. It being a concert style show I don't think it will have any issues playing a theatre that size. Lighting and sound have to play a big factor as well.

Warren Carlyle's Secret Garden has also been looking for a theater for a long time.

I almost feel Diana would work best at a smaller venue like the Lyceum. Wouldn’t be surprised over an announcement. Though I feel it might aim for a spring opening

Is that a Follies reference?

Curious what theater COMPANY is looking at? Lyceum? Brooks Atkinson? Sondheim?
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Side Note: With all these empty theaters coming up, there's going to a lot fewer shows playing this Labor Day (vs. last year.)
