Starting a thread about anticipated shows next year starting in the fall of 2011. I usually am clueless until previews. The only show I know so far is Godspell......what else is coming?

Master Class and The Mountaintop are the only things confirmed. There are a lot of things that haven't publicly announced dates/theatres yet.

SPIDER-MAN TURN OFF THE DARK

Foxwoods Theatre
First Preview: Nov. 28, 2010
Opening: June 14
Director: Julie Taymor and Philip William McKinley
Choreographer: Daniel Ezralow
Cast: Reeve Carney, Jennifer Damiano, Patrick Page

MASTER CLASS

Theatre: Samuel J. Friedman Theatre
First Preview: June 14
Opening: July 7
Director: Stephen Wadsworth
Cast: Tyne Daly, Sierra Boggess
According to MTC, "Terrence McNally's award-winning play about Maria Callas takes us to one of her famous master classes where, late in her own career, she challenges the next generation to make the same sacrifices and dare to rise to the same heights she did, making her the most celebrated, the most reviled and the most controversial singer of her times."


We know about these two, any speculation about the cast of theaters of the other 25 mentioned productions slated for the fall.

I'm not as up on things as most people here, but the playbill.com list seems like it's missing a few things. For instance, I thought the prospects for revivals of Evita and On A Clear Day... were reasonably firm, but they're not on the list. Maybe someone with more information can correct me.

I totally forgot to count Spider-Man.

kdogg, those shows ARE happening, but they haven't announced dates and theatres yet. So they're not official.

Fair enough, but the playbill.com page has a pretty long list of shows "in the works." Anyhow, thanks for the confirmation!

Thing is Godspell is supposed to go into previews spring/summer of 2011 and NO CAST and NO THEATER have been announced. Shouldn't little details like this have been announced or at least speculated already.

Wasn't Death of a Salesman with Philip Seymour Hoffman talked about? And there is also the show with Samuel L. Jackson (I forget what it's called), and also the one with James Franco/Nicole Kidman (again, title is escaping me), looks like a Hollywood year...wonder what Hunter Foster is thinking...

THE MOUNTAINTOP is the play that features Samuel L. Jackson (Halle Berry dropped out). And the Franco/Kidman collaboration is SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH, but don't know if that's official yet.

Another year goes by and still no FIRST WIVES CLUB...

Evita with Ricky Martin and Zorba with Antonio Banderas. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong about them.

Last weekend I saw Neil Berg and his Broadway Showstoppers at Queens Theater and he mentioned that his musical, GRUMPY OLD MEN: THE MUSICAL was going to be doing a trial in Canada in October. A few songs from the score were played and they were good.

Forgot about these. Clear Day has the St. James, I thought.

I believe that Yank and the "new" Gershwin piece, Nice Work If You Can Get It, are also supposed to open this season, but for the spring I think.

^I did read that - I haven't seen anything official yet, though. All I know is that Sierra Boggess is supposed to be leading it.

Is there any news on Ghost coming to New York?
