Company, for sure.

I would have said Virginia Woolf...*sigh*

My ticket for Company was for 3/12, the day the shutdown started, and I would very much like to see Company on the day it re-opens.

The short run of "Notre Dame de Paris" at Lincoln Center in September. If it comes down to it, I hope it'll be postponed, not cancelled outright...I've loved that show for too damn long to not grieve the potential loss of not finally seeing that masterpiece.

I've been trying to convince my parents to let us see Assassins since the cast was announced.  Something tells me it'll be a little harder to convince them now, but I'll still be trying.

I'll either go back for another round of SIX or HADESTOWN, or see the COMPANY revival for the first time.

That's assuming those shows stay open, of course.

My May 31 ticket to Company was exchanged for the October 4 scheduled performance.  I had tickets for Flying Over Sunset for March 29 and Take Me Out for May 17 with my LCT and Signature subscriptions, and those shows are now being planned to open in the fall, with no announced dates.  I don't really know what my next show will be. I don't even know if I'll even have an opportunity to see a show until after 2020.

(Wouldn't it be terrific if HELLO, DOLLY! was still around? There wouldn't be a more joyful way to return to the theater!)

Jagged Little Pill. I had a ticket for yesterday when Broadway was supposed to open back up and I will have one for the day it does open back up.

It'll be a pleasant surprise if it keeps its current schedule, but I'm hoping it'll be The Music Man, which I'm supposed to see in October.

Literally anything. Whatever happens to be playing, I will be at and supporting.

I have a ticket for The Music Man for February 2021, so I'm being cautiously optimistic that it might actually happen. If Broadway reopens in September, I'll see MJ right away and will take my kids to see TKAM which I still haven't seen.

The Sondheim binge I had planned for May will hopefully take place in the fall Company, Assassins and West Side Story (was also supposed to see Plaza Suite, Three Sisters and Ortorio For Living Things)

I hope the Music Man tickets I have for September don’t get messed with

 

also hoping that The Bedwetter and The Visitor get their schedules figured out so I can book tickets

I'll be honest, I'll be shocked if The Music Man shutters completely. I can definitely see it postponing (by which I mean postponing even further than what is mandatory due to the shutdowns/pandemic), but I can't imagine they'll cancel the whole production (although that could just be my nervousness talking). That being said, I'm not going to buy any tickets until after Broadway is up and running.

Depending on when Broadway actually reopens, it’ll either be Hadestown or the community production of Matilda that I’m on the costume team for. (Was supposed to run first week of this month, as of now postponed til the second week of July).
you found your heart but left a part of you behind <3

The quarantine won't be over for at least a year, and by the time Broadway actually reopens, most of the shows left (if not all of them) will be the long-runners and mainstays. I'd be happy if I got to see Phantom for the first time sometime in 2021 after I get vaccinated.

It will probably unfortunately close in the midst of this crisis, though it was making some decent cash before the shutdown. But who knows? If it does survive, I bet you'll be seeing Alanis Morissette or Idina Menzel take on Mary Jane as part of a desperation stunt cast. (Idina originally read the part in 2017)
