When on earth is DC's National Theatre planning to announce? Anybody know?
Very soon. One of the shows in their line up is maybe being replaced.
Thanks for the info, morosco. Very excited to finally hear the news!

The Kennedy Center just emailed its 2015-16 Broadway lineup. (Apologies if someone already posted -- I didn't see it).
Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Oct. 6-24, 2015
Matilda the Musical, Dec. 15, 2015-Jan. 10, 2016
A Gentleman's Guide to Love & Murder, Jan. 13-30, 2016
Kinky Boots,June 14-July 10, 2016
The Bridges of Madison County: A New Musical, June 28-July 17, 2016
The Phantom of the Opera, July 13-Aug. 20, 2016
There appears to be a huge gap between January and June, so I'll bet there are additions. Also, the last three can overlap because I believe that Bridges will be in the Eisenhower Theater, while Kinky Boots and Phantom will be in the Opera House.
As for the other DPAC (Durham) clues, I'm guessing that the "impossible" one means Cinderella. I think the one about a time when music was a way to handle your troubles is Cabaret. They announce Saturday.

I think "impossible" may refer to The Illusionists.
New Orleans 2015-2016 season:
The Little Mermaid Sept. 15-20
Cinderella Oct. 27-Nov.1
Newsies Dec. 1-6
Beauty and the Beast Dec. 29-Jan. 3
Motown Jan 19-24
Kinky Boots Feb. 16-21
The Book of Mormon March 8-13
Cabaret April 5-10
Wicked May 25-June 19
Wicked and B&tB are season specials.
*sigh* All I can say is...they want New Orleans to be a first-run theatre town. Problem with that is...you can't be a first-run theatre town if you don't bring the first-run tours in! Was hoping for Beautiful, If/Then, and/or Hedwig.
@OperaBwayLover "The reason that I know Avenue Q, Cabaret, and Little Mermaid will all be touring is because I work at a theatre as a house manager" Did you make up Avenue Q??
Canada is having their own matilda company?
@Call_me_jorge Yes they are. Like their other all Canadian cast shows of Once & Kinky Boots.

AHLiebross, I highly doubt that there will be any additions to the Kennedy Center's lineup. The gap that they have is common. The Kennedy Center even has a gap this year. Gigi ended in February and The Book of Mormon is coming until June, I think.
I got an email saying A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder will be coming next year at the Golden Gate and I could not be happier. They also said the next season will be revealed in late April.
Jose: I was told Avenue Q was coming. *shrugs* Tours fall through. Not too worried. Two outta three ain't bad. :-p

Great season from the Ahmanson. Sad they only have 1 slot left since the remaining possible shows are all shows I'd love to see
• Little Dancer
• Ragtime
• Hedwig

Has the Ahmanson ever brought in a non-Equity tour (which last I heard Ragtime is going to be)? Just curious if Ragtime would even be considered by them.
