2019-2020 Touring Season

[MTH85]

The listing for Miss Saigon stems back to an article put out by the PPAC which revealed all of the cities it would go to (see page 1 of this post for the link). The article was deleted a short time after it was published. I clipped the list and used it in the spreadsheet just in case it turned out to be accurate. However, I will say that the list included Fort Lauderdale, which does not have it playing there this nor next season. So, could plans have changed and some locations were removed? (it's possible) Or could it be touring past the 19/20 season? (also possible)

Is the Phantom tour ending after Hawaii? CamMac said in a 2015 interview it was supposed to run for 4 more years which would make it run until this year

Just got word of the Theatre Under the Stars 19-20 season for Houston. Shows are:

A Chorus Line - September 2019
Spring Awakening - October 2019
Elf the Musical - December 2019
Once on This Island - February 2020
Pure Country - April 2020
Newsies - May 2020

Don't have more than this and not sure which will be locally produced and which will be tours, if any. This past season was all locally done. I'd assume Chorus Line, Elf and Once on This Island might be tours, especially the latter. Pure Country had a world premiere in Dallas in 2017. Curious about the rest.

Anymore word on the Torch Song tour? It was announced with Michael Urie leading. I'm really hoping that comes to fruition.

Does anyone know if Hello Dolly and Miss Saigon are going to come to Atlanta? We’re not listed on their respective touring websites, but I didnt know if any of yall had some insight! Im a newbie on here! Thank you! And Rest In Peace Carol Channing, you were one of a kind!

[MTH85]

Welcome to BWW, BroadwayinATL! I'm sure someone with more insight could confirm this, but I could see both Dolly and Saigon coming to Atlanta this season. You're getting Hamilton again as you probably already know. I would also expect Anastasia to go there as well.

[JLSatUD]

Baltimore's Hippodrome tweeted that the announcement is this Thursday 1/17. The clues they've given so far are: "The lineup includes 5 #Maryland premieres" and "5 shows are currently playing on Broadway."  We have Hamilton this year which of course maxxed out the season ticket subscriptions, so I imagine they'll try to get a couple big names to hold on to that $$$$...

[Mike Barrett]

Any word on a Providence announcement? I'd expect Dear Evan Hansen, Come From Away, and maybe Aladdin for them. Probably launching a tour or 2 as well per usual, maybe Mean Girls and My Fair Lady?

I spoke to Michael at the stage door after the closing performance - he said that LA, Chicago, and Minneapolis are definitely on the list. The rest of the cast said they know nothing about casting/dates, etc. It is happening for sure.

Just got an email from BAA Houston saying they would be announcing in March. Does not specify an actual date unfortunately. DEAR EVAN HANSEN has already been announced and CATS is one of the shows, coming in October. Curious to see the rest but I suspect COME FROM AWAY and HELLO, DOLLY! will be two of them.

Oh great!! That's super exciting. I'm hoping a season announces it soon for further confirmation.

Escape to Margaritaville

 

[Mike Barrett]

Will Escape To Margeritaville be an equity tour?

[Mike Barrett]

I also have noticed a lot of the BAA sites have updated, although not all. Ft Laudedale and Baltimore have, as well as Boston. Maybe it means an announcement is soon!

I think this is technically a 2018-2019 Season tour, but Miss Saigon is going to be in Dallas from May 14th to the 26th at Music Hall at Fair Park. I'm a few hours away but I wanted to buy independent tickets and go see it. I was wondering, what is the best place to get those tickets?

I normally see shows through Broadway in Austin at Bass Concert Hall, and they have their own first-party/non-resale digital box office built into their own site. On the contrary, I couldn't find where Music Hall at Fair Park is selling their Broadway Across America tickets. The Miss Saigon website takes you to Broadway.com, but as far as I'm aware they are a re-seller and I really do not like buying from them.

The tour is listed on Ticketmaster, but the actual Dallas dates are missing from it's calendar. Does this mean they literally just aren't on sale anywhere yet? If they are on-sale, where can I go to get them first-party, or at a non-resale site. Sorry if this is a dumb question, I'm pretty well-versed in buying for Broadway shows (Ticketmaster/Telecharge/etc.) but I don't really understand where to look for most national tours.
