I am overjoyed that they canceled the tour because the Lied Center (KU) is replacing it with Patti LuPone !! (I do feel bad for the actors and actresses though)
Dallas Summer Musicals announced their season tonight:
The Sound of Music Nov 3-22 2015
Elf Dec 8-20 2015
The Bridges of Madison County Feb 2-14 2016
The Little Mermaid Mar 11-27 2016
Wicked Apr 20- May 22 2015 (season add-on)
Ragtime May 24 - Jun 05 2016
Bullets Over Broadway Jun 14-26 2016
42nd Street Jun 28-Jul 10 2016
All shows will be at Music Hall at Fair Park.
I'm pleased with the season except for The Little Mermaid. That small tour was here last year and I hated the show. But, I really love Ragtime and 42nd Street.
I think newsies should come back to Chicago, because they did set a record in Chicago with the highest gross in one week for a theatrical performance.
In our millions, in our billions, we are most powerful when we stand together. TW4C unwaveringly joins the worldwide masses, for we know our liberation is inseparably bound.
