That would make me dubious to believe."Maybe because some effects (e.g., Mind Flayer) are said to be more impressive in the Broadway production."From what I have heard, they are filming. There are dates blocked off in February. Also yes, part of it is that the special effects are much more significant on Broadway, but also Broadway actually has a completely different version of the sh...

This show had a longer run than it honestly deserved to have. SO much of its humour is gratuitous. LOL we used SWEAR words can you EVEN BELIEVE IT?It's SO dated. Why try to update it when we can support new comedies?

WDYM about HP building a smaller auditorium inside? The Lyric was gutted and has fewer seats, but it's not like the shrunk the interior shell of the theatre at all.

Like we're all skeptical of how Cursed Child will be on tour, so is the physical production of this show similar in that it's hard to imagine an effective touring setup?Trying to decide (as a west coaster) if it's worth devoting a slot to for my spring trip."--- It's difficult to say. Both shows require significant alterations to the st...

Anyone have any idea what theatre it would go into? Heard rumours the original thought was the Playhouse but Cabaret is lasting longer than they expected. I think it could do well in a medium sized house.

Personally I think it completely changes how one views Season 4. It suggests that a major thing viewers believe (because a character said it to another character) was actually a lie (in a believable way / because of a reason another character was forced to lie in earlier seasons). That was difficult to write without being spoilery.

Honestly it is the loudest live performance of anything I've ever seen. Be ready to cover your ears in the first 10 minutes (it gets quieter after that)

4 grand?

Does anyone have any new insider info about the Broadway transfer?Last I heard was somewhere in the first half of 2025, Caissie was a yes and at minimum they were trying to get Jack Wolfe too. Dying for more rumours/info

Can't imagine this in any other theater and it would likely be a short run."Agree that it would make sense there. Also agree it would probably be a short run more because of logistics than anything else.
