If anyone is interested, I was bored at work one day and made a sheet that tracks where each show is going to be. You can use it to see if a show is going to be near you and has a gap in their schedule where your city could be. I try to update it at least once a day. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1p7cqT1sZyZomVPg-CEKGji0ejIdoArYz4UyBMQa0Rew/edit?usp=sharing

I totally started something like this HA!!  So glad I'm not the only Nancy Drew here. Thanks for this, it confirmed my "draft picks" for Memphis.  Can't wait to find out on Monday what we'll really get.

The Kennedy Center should be announcing any day.  I wonder if their strategy is to wait until AFTER Hamilton tickets go on sale this coming Wednesday.  The National hasn't announced their season yet either.

I’m guessing we’re just under a month away from Pittsburgh finally announcing it’s season. The anticipation is killing me.

Pittsburgh is announcing March 26.  Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is one of the shows.

This is the first year I’ve received invites to cast parties (got one in my email for Waitress) and monthly newsletters, etc. from the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, but I don’t think I’ve received one for the announcement event. I’m sure I’d have by now. LOL.

The Ordway Center for the Performing Arts In St. Paul, Minnesota occasionally has tours (American in Paris and Hedwig last year, Kinky Boots this year)

They also produce their own musicals frequently, but next season will have the Falsettos tour, and then they will be producing Mamma Mia, Elf, Bat out of Hell, and Spamalot.

Still more to be announced

Is it likely for Oslo and Doll’s House p2 to tour?

[Hamangel]

Posted: 2/26/18 at 9:38am

Denver just announced. I’m a subscriber but I’m not sure if I’ll renew. I’d like to see about half the shows, so it’s probably cheaper to just buy tickets to those.

Xanadu, Garner Galleria Theatre, Nov. 3, 2018-March 31, 2019

If you're asking in reguard to the Toronto engagements, this 3 show series are primarily either Toronto based productions that have worked with Mirvish (Toronto's theatre producers), or they are productions that are presented in partnership with a regional theatre. 

Oslo is a Studio 180 production (local Toronto theatre), and is being performed at the smaller theatre.

A Doll's House: Part 2 is a production that is starting at the Manitoba Theatre Centre (amazing regional theatre in Winnepeg), and is then moving to Toronto. 

This is typical for this small black-box theatre. The aim is to present great modern plays (King Charles III, Disgraced, The Audience, Salt Water Moon, Oslo, Doll's House etc.) but in a small theatre where they can be more intimate, while being in a 700 seat theatre where it would be easier to sell out, as apposed to the 1500, or 2000, or 2200 seat theatres they own.

You don't want to see A Doll's House Part 2: in the Gershwin.

Is anyone NOT getting Anastasia next year? It seems like that’s a part of everyone’s season!

[BwayLB]
