Was wondering if all shows would be announced by now for the fall 2019 lineup or if their is still a chance for some more.

I count 4 theatres as being available for the fall. One could house a limited run, three could house open-ended runs. I would be surprised if they sit empty, because there's a backlog of shows that are trying to come to Bway.

– Belasco (til Feb)

– Longacre

– Lyceum (A Christmas Carol rumored to be going here)

– Sondheim (available starting in November)

Just wanna note that The Lightning Thief tour is rumored for Longacre but nobody can tell how viable that is.

On the topic of that rumor, LT's official twitter account recently posted this: https://twitter.com/ltmusical/status/1160549445387374593?s=21

I believe they're using the "number neighbor" meme to imply that Hadestown is about to be their theater neighbor, which would confirm the transfer to the Longacre. Supposedly.

Honestly that is the only explanation I can think of. If not, that's just a super confusing tweet. If this is transferring before the end of this year, I'm really surprised they aren't building hype with an announcement, especially if they are moving in by Sept. Has a show ever done this, moved in and then made an official announcement?

No idea, but these clues are interesting.

- The first one is Mushu saying “I LIVE!” in Mulan. Reasonable, since the social media stopped posting after the tour ended.

- A super cryptic gif of a white glowing dress, tinted with a shade of blue used all over their social media pages. This one is probably the most interesting since Grover wears a wedding dress in the second book, not the first. However, somebody uncovered it to be the “Cinderella” dress worn by Claire Danes at the 2016 Met Gala. I’m not sure if there’s any correlation there, but something is definitely coming. If not Broadway, Percy Jackson 2. Maybe Off-Broadway?

- The Reeve Carney number neighbor tweet, which would reference their connections in mythology, musical theatre, and I guess Broadway, if that’s happening.

Someone also mentioned the show’s composer Rob Rokicki posting cryptic stuff, but the most cryptic thing I could find was a send-off to The Prom and Be More Chill, which just seems like a creator supporting other creators.

I hope COMPANY takes the Sondheim

With the way TLT’s socials have flared up, I’d assume an announcement is coming this week. Just a hunch.

 

ETA: Interesting... if you visit this site you’ll see it’s a Dream Host Parked Domain, aka a domain that has been purchased and is likely ready to be active/enables email hosting but is not “turned on” just yet. Take that for what you will.

Oh, it's definitely happening.

I just wanna throw it out there because it's been a topic of conversation on other threads: parking a web domain means nothing. Domain names are usually easy and cheap for the ad agency or producer to reserve, even if Broadway seems like a pipedream. If you don't reserve them, some jerk could buy up the domains in the hope that someone comes to them and with an offer to buy it for a much higher price.

That said, it seems like Lightening Thief is indeed transferring. But the web domain is not a factor.

Thanks for the explanation! I work in web design so I’m fully aware of what a parked domain is, how it works and its different uses. 

That said, while I’m not saying the domain IS a factor, I would not 100% say it is NOT a factor, either. Just that it COULD be in the grand scheme of things. That’s all.
