Since there are lot of people with inside info on this board--- are there any shows that are yet to be announced for Spring of 2019 (in time for Tony Cut-off) that could still announce opening? (For example, Kinky Boots is closing. Is there a show that could open up in time for the Tonys in that theatre?)

"It does what a musical is supposed to do; it takes you to another world. And it gives you a little tune to carry in your head. Something to take you away from the dreary horrors of the real world. A little something for when you're feeling blue. You know?"
The Hirschfeld has Moulin Rouge previewing June 28. (They may also want to give it a little facelift between long-term tenants.) The Barrymore will have a summer or fall play. The Lunt could have had a 20-week limited run between Donna and Tina, but that didn't happen (and now there's the Morrisey concert).
In general, there needs to be a minimum 4 weeks between the closing of one show and the first preview of another to load-out the old show, load-in the new, and do a week+ of tech.
They asked a simple question, idk why theres a need for this lol.
Everything has been announced so far for this season though. While its not this exact date every year, this year the cut off for shows to open, not begin previews but truly open, is April 25. Anything opening after that is for next season.
