LOL.

But actually, I think Angels in America is probably the safe guess, unless Mean Girls or Dreamgirls somehow ends up here?

I've heard one of  two new shows will be next.  It will be Racist Racist Donald Trump or Confessions of A Young Trump Voter.

Does Carousel have a venue yet? It would do well here. I don't want Angels to go anywhere but Beaumont

This is the last Broadway theater that I have yet to visit, so I hope it's something I'm interested in seeing! Luckily, that's the case with most of the guesses on this thread.

Maybe we can have (yet) another revival of GYPSY ! We haven't had enough of those in the past 15 years.

Thank God I wasn't drinking my coffee as I would have spit it out while laughing all up in here!

 i know :) I'm saying I'm okay waiting a couple years if that's what it takes for Beaumont to become available. 

Does anyone know which house Carousel is interested in? I'd have thought Kinky Boots' replacement casting hinted at closing making room for Carousel, but it doesn't look like that they'll need to close if they can do more high profile replacements like Urie. Other one could be Jacobs I suppose

I suspect Mean Girls.

Tried to watch the "Bat Out of Hell" clips from London and it looks awful. But that said, I'd totally see it on Broadway. And apparently this is the season of crap jukebox shows, so bring it on!

As of now, Escape to Margaritaville is the only jukebox musical confirmed for this season, Prince of Broadway doesn't count as it's much more of a revue.

So then is KINKY BOOTS moving? I can't imagine it's closing given it's new knack for stunt casting.

I'd heard that Mean Girls had intended to go to the Hirschfeld but the producers of Kinky Boots thought they had enough star power lined up to keep it going longer than they had thought. And at this point, it seems like there are going to be more than enough theaters available to fit other incoming shows. But I'm operating on hearsay that's two weeks old at this point. I just hope we get some more announcements soon. More! New! Shows!
