Yeah I've been wondering about this.  Has Roundabout announced their season for next year either?

Roundabout has announced several Off-Broadway productions, but nothing for Broadway. Manhattan Theatre Club has also partially announced its season. Nothing from the Public.

I wonder if Sondheim's new show will be part of next season at the Public.  That would be absolutely marvelous.

Roundabout has announced one Broadway show- Marvin's Room starts previews at the American Airlines this June. 


I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.

Baker: this list is super-useful ... thanks so much for posting!

You might add BAM to the Unannounced list; i know they do more than theater, but Next Wave usually includes some interesting productions.

I would also include Soho Rep and Ars Nova on that list as well!

Another thank you for taking the time to write out this list.  I find it to be really helpful too!

Glad people are finding it useful. I might write out a longer one and make it it's own thread.

I've edited my list to include SOHO Rep in the unannounced category, and I believe BAM and Ars Nova both announce one show at a time.

BAM occasionally announces single shows, such as the current Dreyfus affair show, but usually they have two full season announcements: one for the fall Next Wave festival, and one for the winter/spring season.

MARVIN'S ROOM is part of Roundabout's 2016-2017 season.

well, yeah, but also Shakespeare, and at the Delacourt, not at the Public Theater proper

Disappointed to not see the new Sondheim musical in the line up. Any chance that it can still come in next season?

 Is the As You Like It musical really only running for five days?
