Also, worth noting the breakdown of the design team: 

The scenic and lighting designers are the same as Off-Broadway (and it's the same choreographer, obviously). But the costumes, sound, and wig/hair designers are new hires. And there's also a projection designer added to the roster, where the Public production didn't have one. 

Unless the set/lights/choreography are completely overhauled, it sounds like this will be a very soft remount of the Public production. But because of the circumstances, it's hard to categorize. Also, I'm not seeing a producing / development credit for the Public, but I'd be curious to double-check once the credits are finalized in the Playbill.

I assume the Public gets credit in SOME form, especially since they produced the original Bway production too.

Did this production originate with the commercial producers, who then brought it to and enhanced the Public production? At the very least, the Public probably gets a "produced in association with" credit.

I'm not sure. I feel like I sometimes see enhancement producers listed on the billing posters AT the Public, but I can never see any listed on IOBDB, or even the program (?) (though maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough).
