"

Kara Lindsay talks about the gentlemans guide tour closing, pretty early on in her Show People interview. I think it would be pretty safe to say the tour for the stops in 2017-2018 are non-eq.

Love Never Dies

An American in Paris

The Bodyguard

Fidning Neverland

School of Rock

On Your Feet

A disappointment for me. I might try to catch Finding Neverland with cheap seats because I loved the film but that's it. The Broadway in Detroit series used to get the better shows in Michigan, now it gets the same stuff that the Wharton Center and other venues get. What happened? Here's hoping the Opera House season makes up for this.

"

I agree. The only ones I am really interested in are the non subscription, Les Miz, and The Color Purple. MIght take my kid to School of Rock, but that's it. Love Never dies? Ew. I wish we were getting Waitress.

Buffalo's season gets announced on Tuesday. I'm really hoping it looks more like Cleveland than Detroit. We've got one of the strongest markets for touring engagements in the country, so I'm hopeful we're gonna get a great year (this year's was pretty weak).

Buffalo got mostly first string tours this season, American in Paris, the launching of Finding Neverland tour, Gentleman's Guide, Sound of Music, Cabaret and A Christmas Story-- The only thing we didn't really get was King and I-- Hardly a slouch of a season!

Yeah very good point! I was thinking more personal preference.

When does the Kimmel Center tend to release their show season?

The Kimmel Center is usually one of the last to announce their season. I think it's late April or early May.

The Kimmel Center will announce in the next week to two weeks.

Edit: It just came up in my TimeHop today that they were teasing the 2016-2017 season around this time last year for a similar time frame announcement.

Kind of upset waitress isn't on there. Other than that, it's only four shows which is kind of upsetting. The Humans being including gives me more reason to believe the private bank will be open come January.

Hartford's Bushnell is supposed to announce tonight to their suscribers and to the public this week I assume. Hope someone can post that when it happens

That spring looks pretty thin for Chicago, so there should be more.

I am shocked that The Color Purple isn't on Chicago's next season. Maybe there will be a pre-Broadway show.

Buffalo does announce tomorrow but from their advertisement it's clear these two shows are coming:

IdinaBellFoster - What ad? Was it something season ticket holders received? I can't wait for Buffalos announcement tomorrow! It's going to be a very long day of waiting for me!

Yes it was sent to season ticket holders! It was written in the WAITRESS font and said that "America's love for apple pie never dies".

Looks like the season announcement has been canceled due to the incoming storm. Hopefully they still announce it without the event.

Ah, thank you! According to the Shea's website they will announce live via Facebook at 7 pm & the season will be posted on their site at 8 pm. Like Tonyz2, I really hope Buffalo looks a lot like Cleveland, if it does I might need to become a season ticket holder for the first time!

I don't believe we will be getting HAMILTON this season...but I think they will announce that it is coming Fall 2018 (the start of the next next season).

I'd still be perfectly happy if we got the other 6 shows from Cleveland sans Hamilton. Now if we got the same 6 shows as the Cleveland season plus 1 or 2 of the add ons that Detroit (The Color Purple, Les Mis) got... that would be truly spectacular for me.

Totally random, are there any "big" shows that run tours in subsequent years to the same cities like I remember back in the 1990s? I remember Les Miz coming to Detroit multiple times (I saw it two years in a row) and Miss Saigon also coming several years in a row. Seems like lately most shows hit a major city once and that's it.

Wicked and Book of Mormon have both repeated many cities.

Lion King tour this season played Minneapolis for the Fifth time on tour (sixth time if you coun't pre-broadway). Right now it's basically LK, Phantom, Book of Mormon and Wicked that do repeat engagements.
