UK's The Daily Mail is reporting that London will get revivals of the musicals Annie Get Your Gun and Sweet Charity for Fall 2009.

SWEENEY TODD, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, will make its Detroit premiere at the Fisher Theatre for a limited three-week engagement, March 17 - April 5, 2009. Tickets are available for purchase at the Fisher Theatre box office, online at www.ticketmaster.com or www.broadwayindetroit.com and by phone at 1- 800-982-2787.

Eight new productions, four of which are company premieres, will highlight the Metropolitan Opera's 2009-10 season. General Manager Peter Gelb and Music Director James Levine jointly announced plans that include: the Met premieres of Rossini's Armida, Verdi's Attila, Jan?ček's From the House of the Dead, and Shostakovich's The Nose; new productions of Bizet's Carmen, Offenbach's Les Contes d'Hoffmann, Thomas's Hamlet, and Puccini's Tosca; and 18 revivals from the company's repertory. The season is the first to be entirely planned under Gelb's leadership, in collaboration with Levine (the past three seasons were planned before Gelb became General Manager in 2006-07 but included some productions, repertoire, and casting changes made by Gelb).
