Anyone have an educated guess as to which musicals will be opening on Broadway during the spring of 2020?

Tina and Jagged Little Pill open this fall, so I guess that would be considered the 2019 - 2020 season. Magic Mike is playing in Boston this fall, and I think it's safe to say it'll be opening in the spring.

I assume Moulin Rouge will still be open. I imagine The Flamingo Kid is aiming for Broadway after the cast they announced yesterday. Benny and Joon starts it’s second out of town tryout this week, so that could be a maybe, I guess.

The "season" starts the day after the current year's Tony eligibility date passes.

I'm aware. I just didn't know if the poster meant debuting during next spring, or not.

In my own perfect world, I'd love for Six to do amazing in Chicago and make a Broadway transfer [even if it's for a limited engagement] sometime in the fall/spring.

I hope Company is still planning a transfer for the 2019-20 season.

The problem with SIX is that it’s 70 minutes long. Charging Broadway prices for that (even though I LOVE the show) is just ridiculous.

Yeah i agree, that's the main reason why I don't think it'll transfer. 

And I forgot about Company! I remember reading somewhere on here that Jordan Roth wants it for a Jujamcyn theater. I hope that still holds truuuuee.

They'd be best to do a 3 month strictly limited run at somewhere like the Hayes or the Cort and charge a hundred bucks a ticket, take the financial hit and then find it a more permanent home Off-Broadway once it's become a hit.

I think "Six" needs a non-profit behind it to makes its way. And I think 2nd Stage would be the perfect fit. They're trendy.
