Agree. Maybe they get & Juliet too. I was sure Shucked would have gone to the Ahmanson, that one surprised me.

I’m thinking of planning a trip to Los Angeles this summer and I was wondering when they usually announce which musical will be at the Hollywood Bowl? and when they usually play? I saw a few shows in the past have been the end of July; is this always the case?Additionally - are tickets usually hard to come by? Does anyone know the average price?"I've been a subscriber for 10 years. Let me know any questions you have regarding the bowl.

Friend of mine went and said there were a ton of empty seats. I have 2 subscriptions on 2 different nights and couldn't sell them for under $20 for parterre seats for a Saturday night show.

Off topic, but anyone know how in the world Escape to Margaritaville was given a month run at the Dolby in Los Angeles?? It seems it's only 2 or 3 days in other cities. You can't give tickets away to this thing.

I can totally see Jack Black doing it. He lives in LA, this would be something he's probably never done, just 3 performances.

Ahmanson also has Le Mis.

I'm pleased with the season as well. Just curious what's going to fill in a lot of the down time for both venues. But the Pantages/Dolby season along with the Ahmanson season so far, super strong. Now waiting on the Hollywood Bowl announcement. :)

Oh, thought you were replying to my post about the Pantages.

Academy Awards are at the Dolby.

Hamilton has extended to the end of November. Harry Potter is currently playing until August in San Fran.

Yeah, Prom for sure. Hope Ferryman, that would be awesome.Is there any news/rumors for Beetlejuice or Jagged Little Pill tours?

They've announced 3 shows, but haven't given a date yet for the full season announcement.Dear Evan Hansen, Hadestown & To Kill a Mockingbird

Since as of now the Pantages is currently open from Dec '20 to June '21, maybe Harry Potter will park at the Pantages for 6 months?

Pantages/Dolby/Broadway in Hollywood announcing Feb 4th.

Dear Evan Hansen has been announced as part of the season, not an add on.

The 2020-2021 Ahmanson season is shaping up to be possibly the best I've ever seen.Hadestown, Dear Evan Hanson, To Kill a Mockingbird and I'm guessing the Prom will be added as well.

I could see Harry Potter posting up at the Pantages or Dolby for a couple months, like Hamilton is doing. My other guesses for the new season would be Moulin Rouge, Beetlejuice, Tina T, Lion King, Oklahoma, Tootsie, and maybe Ave. Q or Jagged?
