happy/sad faces - ADDAMS FAMILY?
Santa - A CHRISTMAS STORY? The pic looks like Elf but I think they just did that a few years ago.
Golden eggs - INTO THE WOODS? Is that wishful thinking?
Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s one or two new musicals or a play in there, since they’ve been focused on more new work recently.

WHITE CHRISTMAS for the Santa
CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY for the eggs
HEATHERS for the hair dryer

The snow globe santa made me think of Slava's Snow Show that tours the world.
I assumed the golden eggs are Charlie and the Chocolate Factory even though that just closed and the golden eggs aren't in the stage show, just the movie.

I feel like Charlie is almost too obvious for the eggs.
Funny thing Happened on the way to the Forum for Happy/sad (Comedy/tragedy)?

Posted: 2/8/18 at 11:36amI was told the season is full of new works. As for White Christmas, Forum, Christmas Story, etc...all have been done in recent years.

The two hands makes me think of "War Paint", or "Sunday in the Park with George"

The golden eggs could very well be a reference to Into the Woods. That was my first thought as well.
If the show is heavy on new works, then this whole thing is kind of silly.

For some odd reason the hands reminded me of Pippin or Godspell
Santa could be The Grinch ?

I have to say, I'm really stumped. The golden eggs certainly could be Into the Woods, but I'm not sure if I could see that as being a part of their upcoming season. Their mission shifted this year, with the new tagline being, "Where New American Musical Theatre Comes to Life," so I'm not sure Into the Woods would exactly fit that theme. Again, I was told the season would be comprised of "many premieres/new works," but that's all the info I was given. Very curious to say the least!

This is, indeed, the stupidest guessing game if the shows are all new, which five out of six probably are. Who came up with this idea? Just announce the season already.

When they did a season full of known, established, works it was always great fun. This, not so much.
Nowadays, they only do one “classic” show a year, usually around the holidays.

So, I'm guessing the first clue is: "Unmasking (tape)"...

People have had success guessing the new works in past seasons (quite a few guessed The Honeymooners last year).
Kris Kringle for the Santa?
