Hadestown will be in the 2019-20 season. It’s in London this season in the winter and I doubt the transfer would happen immediately. It will get some Olivier Awards and do well at the Tonys I’m sure.
I feel like Girl From the North Country will transfer and we'll have a Tootsie vs. Girl From the North Country season. Maybe Jagged Little Pill will stumble into the mix too.

If Ain’t Too Proud opens in the spring, which I think it will, I would not count it out by any means I saw it DC and it’s 2:20 of great entertainment. It broke every record at Berkeley Rep and I think the run at The Kennedy Center was pretty much sold out as well. We’ll know more after we see the critical response when it opens in LA on Tuesday (Aug. 21)

That's what I heard
"Anything you do, let it it come from you--then it will be new."
Sunday in the Park with George
with new data track TONY voter system this year, if one doesn't see EVERY show in a category that has been nominated - no get to voteeee. So folks be racing to BITB. I think it'll do just fine cuzza that.
I'd wager for Be More Chill (having just seen it at Signature last week) there'd be a Best Score nod and nods for George Salazar and Gerard Canonico, definitely scenic and lighting design.
I was going to say Salazar as well. I think they could get Best Musical/Book/Score, depending on the competition. Orchestrations and maybe Direction as well

Idk about much else, though......."
Lighting Design, definitely. Scenic Design...idk about that. George will for sure get recognized for Featured Actor.

Says the same person who has heaped copious amounts of praise on Girl From the North Country, which hasn't even announced a transfer, despite the rumors. And besides, what if Tootsie turns out like Pretty Woman? I'm not saying it will, but what if it turned out to not be this super amazing thing that everyone is hoping it will be? David Yazbek and Scott Ellis are sort of the guiding light for that show, but still...
We shouldn't assume things based on our sole opinions! I mean, this is the same board that thought that Great Comet would sweep, and then got the last word in by constantly bringing up the entire "what if ___ and ___ had transferred this season" bullcrap from this past season!
In my opinion, it's okay to have reservations on certain musicals. Take an earlier poster from this thread. Just because you liked the movie does not mean it will transfer to a worthy musical adaptation (see: 9 to 5, Rocky, most of the Disney shows, Ghost, etc.)
P.S. This isn't me being pessimistic; more or less, it's me pointing out that a lot of posters on these boards always feel the need to be a little 'facetious' whenever they post.
Um or maybe I know a couple of friends who were at the Tootsie workshop and said it was a phenomenal musical comedy and maybe I saw The Girl From the North Country in London and I saw Be More Chill Off Broadway. My predictions are not entirely baseless, and besides isn't that the whole point of this thread? To make absurd predictions long before the Tonys?
I thought Be More Chill was awful and I predict Tootsie will do better based upon what Ive heard and who is attached. I also think The Girl From the North Country will probably transfer and I think will win many awards.
Nobody even knows what tootsie is. Be more chill is actual theatre. Its an experince. Santino (who nobody even knows) wont beat out George. Will Roland will win. His performance was amazing.
