From interview with Lachanze:
You’ll have to add an extra chapter for “The Secret Life of Bees.” (In this new musical, with a book by Pulitzer Prize-winner Lynn Nottage, music by Duncan Sheik, lyrics by Susan Birkenhead, LaChanze played one of a trio of eccentric beekeeping sisters who aid two young women on the run in 1960s South Carolina). Any chance you’ll bring the show to Broadway?
It has a future — that’s all I’m at liberty to say. But if you didn’t see it, you’ll have an opportunity to see it in the near future. I think we’re going to London, then returning to the States. That’s why my book isn’t finished yet. My acting career interrupts from time to time.

Maybe a run at The Other Palace? Then back here? Hm. Guess that's a smart choice. They'd be wise to come in this season with so little new musicals.

Don't think it's The Other Palace. Hopefully announced soon.
