Very happy for all involved! 

It's interesting that it's November. Surprised they're not going for the Spring.

I have no inside knowledge, but doesn't the timing indicate it's the Broadhurst?





Eta: It's not the Booth. The Booth is occupied: http://www.theatermania.com/broadway/news/les-liaisons-dangereuses-broadway-mcteer-schreiber_76761.html

Next year's Tonys should be interesting. Dear Even Hansen vs. Great Comet vs. Anastasia vs. Groundhog Day, plus Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Come From Away, Holiday Inn, and who knows what else in the mix.

Man, I was really hoping for the Booth and opening in the Spring. This seems like the Fun Home of the season and a Spring opening would make more sense, but I hope "Pitch Perfect's Ben Platt" will be enough to keep it open till awards.

Based on the performance I saw, Platt is basically this years Hugh Jackman in terms of a lock for a tony. He is so good!

The Broadhurst definitely seems the most likely given the timing, but they could be holding back on announcing depending on what else is coming up--maybe they're considering moving some things around. By November they'll have at least a few other open houses--the Longacre, the Belasco, the Lyceum, maybe the Cort or Schoenfeld, and the timing of Curious Incident's closing would line up perfectly for the Barrymore. 

 

Regardless, I missed out on tickets off-Broadway, so I'm thrilled that it's transferring. And so soon!

Hopefully the cast moves with it, but they didn't announce that yet.  What if they want a "star" in the role?

Can people who claim to have insider knowledge maybe stop beating around the bush and telling other people they're wrong and instead just say where they've heard it'll be going? Way more productive.

seriously? platt IS a star. platt IS the show. he's winning a Tony next year. they ain't recasting.  one or two parts will be different but the rest of cast will stay on from what i have heard

Then what would JM226 do with their life?
