BroadwayConcierge said: "I just want to point out how many theaters are currently vacant for Spring 2019: Booth, Cort, Golden, Imperial, Lyceum, Marquis, Walter Kerr, and Winter Garden (eight total).

And very possibly the Al Hirschfeld, Belasco, Circle in the Square, Hudson, Lunt-Fontanne, and the Sondheim (another six)."


 

Thanks for that! I do have trouble keeping up. While we're at it, would you mind editing the original list and add the theatre next to each show? I know the information is out there, but it'd be nice to have it all in one place - and I do look at this list sometimes to remind myself what's confirmed.

Theres 7 musicals this season (Including revival) and 3 of them have already begun performances. Last season was weak but it looks like its gonna beat out this season.

There's currently 6 theaters available for the Spring: Imperial, Lyceum, Winter Garden, Golden, Walter Kerr & Booth. Based on grosses and reports/rumors, there could be 7 more available as well: Sondheim, Belasco, Hudson, Hirschfeld, Circle in the Square, Lunt-Fontanne, Brooks Atkinson. The Shubert will be available, but the likelihood of something moving in there in time for the Tony cut-off seems unlikely(Mockingbird closes March 17).

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 will be starting up in Somerville, NJ on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City, MO(May 29-Jun 3) and is now then touring throughout Japan August & September 2018. Japan schedule: Tokyo(Aug 15-21), Kanagawa(Aug 28-29), Shizuoka(Aug 30), Osaka(Aug 31 - Sept 2).

We finally have many new musicals lined up.... if they're any good is still up for debate. Now where are all the revivals at?!

I'm loving that we've gotten so much confirmation over the last couple of days for musicals. This seems like it'll be a fun season. 

Are there any musical revivals even rumored?

Pero, like..didn't we just have a Fiddler revival? Is there some special reason it might be coming back after only 3 years?

Aside from KISS ME, KATE...

Someone on the other thread claims DREAMGIRLS is waiting because of Amber Riley's schedule.

CRAZY FOR YOU if they can get the money and a theatre? But it would probably have to open in the fall or winter: Stroman's LITTLE DANCER at the 5th Avenue starts NYC rehearsals February 7, performances in Seattle March 22 and opens April 5. A lot of these "available" theatres seem too small for Crazy For You, and at this point I can't imagine the Lunt will be available before January.

Thank you!

I saw about Dreamgirls. With so few revivals I think this would be the perfect time.

I didn't think this would happen, but I feel like no other musical revival will end up opening. If we haven't heard even rumblings by now, I'm not feeling too confident.

Is that confirmed? I know that's all it's on sale for now but is it possible/likely it will extend?

I hope this production of Fiddler comes in. It's the best production of this musical that I've ever seen and it would be phenomenal in Circle in the Square. They could bring in a star for Tevye, maybe Mandy Patinkin, and it would probably do pretty well as a limited run. In such a weak season for musical revivals, it might be a good idea.

I thought I heard tickets were on sale until June 9, but not to the general public. I'm not totally sure, could someone with more information clarify?

I saw Little Dancer (which I keep calling Tiny Dancer; Sorry, Elton) in D.C. and at least then it was not ready for Broadway.

Even so, Little Dancer will take up Stroman's time this spring, which makes Crazy For You not likely for this season.

Tony Yazbeck and Laura Osnes are doing four nights together at 54 Below beginning on October 2nd. The program is supposed to be weighted towards Gershwin.

If there has been no announcement on Crazy for You before their performance, we will corner them and not let them leave 'til they spill their guts.
