Posted: 12/5/14 at 4:44pmWho would tour IF/THEn without Idina?

Posted: 12/5/14 at 5:01pmJackie Burns since she's the understudy on broadway

Posted: 12/5/14 at 7:25pmThe show needs Idina Menzel's name if it's going to sell on the road.

Posted: 12/5/14 at 8:42pmOMG haven't heard rumors about that Hedwig tour. Fingers crossed it would make a stop in Atlanta!

Posted: 12/7/14 at 2:11pmI hope they cast well known broadway actors for the leads in the Bridges of Madison County tour.

Posted: 12/7/14 at 9:01pmLittle Mermaid most likely won't tour. The rights are set to release in Fall of 2015 with MTI.
2015-2016 touring season#33
Posted: 12/7/14 at 10:34pmI don't hink the rights being out mean anything. Beauty and the Beast, Elf, The Grinch, Chicago, and countless others have toured with the rights available.

Posted: 12/9/14 at 8:34pmDo you guys think that Les Miserables will go on tour? or Violet?

Posted: 12/9/14 at 9:20pmI can see Violet possibly doing a sit-down run, like Follies did. But only if Sutton came along with it.

Posted: 12/9/14 at 9:21pmI wish L.A. had their own broadway-like area. Chicago has so many broadway tryouts, tours, etc. sometimes at the same time. They're lucky.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 12:48pmI just read that Louisville will announce their season on February 19th which is about 3 weeks earlier than last year. I am so excited to find out what amazing shows we get this next season!

Posted: 12/10/14 at 12:55pmI font think we have ever heard that early before! I am 99 percent positive we are getting Kinky Boots. Cyndi mentioned it when she was here with Cher and when I asked the Broadway Across America rep. If we were getting it, she gave a silly kind of "I don't know?" and then gave a very obvious wink. I wouldn't be surprised if Louisville got Wicked again. It's been almost 3 years and it always sells out.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 1:08pmI really hope we get Kinky Boots and I would love to see Wicked again. What do you think the chances are of Louisville getting Matilda or Beautiful?
2015-2016 touring season#41
Posted: 12/10/14 at 2:05pmI honestly don't know. There are a lot of great shows going out, and I'm pretty easy to please. I wouldn't be surprised if Chicago came back. It's been years since it's been here.
2015-2016 touring season#42
Posted: 12/10/14 at 2:56pmChicago goes to the smaller market a lot in Lexington now, though, so I don't really see it coming back to Louisville. It was in Lexington just last year.

What's the most shows your theatre has had in a season, not including random concerts???
The Pantages Theatre (here in LA) had 11 in the 2012-2013 season, had 9 in the 2013-2014 season, has 7 in THIS season, & HOPEFULLY this upcoming 2015-2016 has more shows.. because we've been getting less shows a season by the years.
Shows here usually run for 3 weeks, but every holiday we get a BIG show like The Book of Mormon, The Lion King, or Wicked that run for usually 3 months.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 3:23pmThe Addams Family was in Lexington in March 2013 then it was announced it was opening Louisville's season that October. I actually saw it on both it's Kentucky stops! Anything can happen.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 3:29pmI think the most Louisville has gotten is 6 or 7 but it's usually 5 and sometimes there are 1 or 2 season extras. Usually the longest runs we ever have are 2 weeks, which is rare in itself, but Lion King IS getting 3 weeks. Our concerts are part of a completely different series. So consider yourself lucky you average anywhere from 7 to 11! :)

Orlando usually gets six, with an add-on or two. This year we have two add-ons (Book of Mormon and Beauty and the Beast). Of our 6 shows this year, two of them are non-equity (Anything Goes and I Love Lucy: the Musical). The equity tours this season are Phantom, Newsies, Motown, and Pippin. Everything is here for a week this year, except Phantom (which inexplicably got 2 weeks) and Mormom, which also has two weeks.
Incidentally, Newsies is easily the best seller thus far, well outpacing even Book of Mormon. Most perfomances are already sold out.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 4:03pmTo be fair if BOM is 2 weeks and Newsies is 1 it makes since the latter would sell out first.

Posted: 12/10/14 at 4:12pmI wonder what year it was that things got so bad, short-lived flops like Bridges (100 performances), Ghost (136) and Bullets (156) were considered viable touring material.
