Starting next fall, the Paramount will join the ranks of Chicago's top Equity houses by self-producing and presenting a spectacular, four-show Broadway series including My Fair Lady (September 14-October 2, 2011), Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (November 2-November 20, 2011), A Chorus Line (January 18-February 5, 2012) and Hair (March 14-April 2, 2012).

Paramount officials confirmed today that they have hit the 2,000 mark for reservations, and thus have officially sold out the theater's Big Reveal Party, Friday, March 18 at 7 p.m. That's when - and only when - the titles of the four blockbuster musicals that will make up the Paramount's inaugural 2011-2012 Broadway Subscription Series, launching this fall, will be made public for the first time.
