The Ferryman is coming over with tremendous acclaim from London. Very much looking forward to that in terms of plays.

Neither have announced yet, but if and when they do, I hope next season's new musical jewels will be Moulin Rouge! and Hadestown.

I'm eagerly awaiting announcements for more musical revivals.

I also hope that Moulin Rouge! and Hadestown transfer. Those are two productions I'm dying to see and would make the season more exciting. I'm also looking forward to having Kelli O'Hara back on Broadway.

I’m hoping for Moulin Rouge!
As well as King Kong.

I personally hope for Cher as well. But who knows

And some revivals to be announced.

Hadestown has mentioned a 2019 transfer, but it's not clear as to which season it'll premiere. Also very excited for Moulin Rouge! - I will be in that theater no matter how it's received. What a spectacle that team has the potential to create. And despite the lukewarm responses to Pretty Woman, I'm excited to see Samantha Barks. I loved her in Amelie before it hit Broadway.

I'm also holding out for Hangmen to make a transfer this upcoming season since this April didn't work out.

Isn't David Yazbek doing a Tootsie musical? That could be fun.

Really hoping some producers somewhere are quietly still working on Ride The Cyclone coming in!

RTC would go nicely at Circle in the Square, I can't imagine it playing anywhere bigger.

Screw it.

I kinda want to see how Pretty Woman the Musical goes. I like the cast, I like Bryan Adams, it might be fun.

Would definitely love to see King Kong if they include the dinosaurs. I’m a sucker for the cutest animal to ever walk the earth—Tyrannosaurus Rex.

I'm looking forward to The Prom! It sounds like a lot of fun AND it's a completely original musical.

Also hoping that Tootsie/Moulin Rouge/Hadestown end up transferring as well.

2019 may be too soon but the eventual transfer of Chris Durang's new play TURNING OFF THE MORNING NEWS which is soon to open at the McCarter. Theatre. If the full synopsis (hard to find) is any indication people expecting something along the lines of VANYA AND SONIA...will be dutifully petrified.

The Ferryman and hopefully Hadestown!

A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

I hope Hadestown comes this season; I can't wait to see what everyone's been talking about and I hope it lives up to the hype.

 

I'm excited for USA to see The Ferryman, which for me exceeded its hype. Finally a truly epic sensational play about real history that still affects British lives.

Moulin Rouge is one of my favorite movies so I'm really hopeful I'll enjoy the musical.

Also looking forward to Hadestown because Rachel Chavkin is a genius.

Coming out of DC, both Beetlejuice and Dave have a decent chance of making it for next season.

Ferryman, Hadestown, ride the cyclone. Would be happy to see any of those next year.

The Ferryman gets my vote.

It's sad, but so far, next year doesn't look very promising.

Hope I'm wrong

Depending on the cast, Kiss Me Kate could be good. It won't be another She Loves Me (pitch perfect casting, down to the very last swing, and a generally more enjoyable musical comedy), but it could be very good as it's the same team.

I have high hopes for Tootsie, given its creative team. I can't wait to see it tryout in Chicago and find out the rest of the cast. I'm looking forward to NYC falling in love with Samantha Barks and hope Pretty Woman finds success after some tweaks (lots of potential there). Also intrigued by the prospect of Hadestown, though I don't know much about it.

Also excited to have Kelli O'Hara back on Broadway, and crossing my fingers that the Crazy for You revival happens with Laura Osnes and Tony Yazbeck!

I just want Pretty Woman to be successful Tony-wise. I think it was sensational. I think both Samantha Barks an Eric Anderson deserve nominations, if not wins. I think Samantha's biggest competition will be Stephanie J Block for Cher, but I am seeing the show at the end of June so I will be able to report back.
