2019-2020 Broadway Season

Since the old thread seems to be inactive, I figured I'd start a new one since the announcements just keep rolling in. Following the same trend, productions will only be confirmed if they have dates or a venue, and I included first preview/opening dates too.

The song list on wikipedia shows two - "Smiling" and "Predator"

Well the songwriters won last time for Memphis also in a largely jukebox-dominated season anyway so I guess it's not completely out of the realm of possibility.

Though having seen it at La Jolla, I can see Diana making its way to Broadway eventually, but not for another year or two and with another tryout or so.

I also enjoyed The Girl From The North Country - surprised that hasn't found a Broadway home, yet. Linda Vista was also pretty damn excellent.

i'm hoping The Inheritance will find a Broadway home - I'd love to see it

Doesn't sound like Magic Mike is happening anytime soon and...will Tea At Five actually make it to Broadway> heck, will it make it through its Boston run?

"

One month out from performances (about) and haven’t heard anything of a cancelation or the Boston run at least for Tea At Five. My guess is it’s still happening. The Inheritance I expect will transfer, my guess is it goes to the Belasco. Dying to see that show as well! Still out here praying for a Fairview transfer as well.

Wow that’s depressing!

I believe Mr. Rudin holds the rights to SALESMAN for the planned Nathan Lane/Laurie Metcalf/Joe Mantello production a few years off.

Semi-related, but remember when HANGMAN was the best thing since sliced bread and was trying to do a quick transfer before the Tonys last season? Sort of goes to show how quickly the tide can change on shows.

JVJ93 said: "What do we think will make its way from London next season? At this point, The Inheritance and Dreamgirls seem the most likely.
But I’d really love to see some other stuff from there play off broadway. Marianne Elliot’s Death of a Salesman just opened to raves and Caroline or Change is strongly rumored to be coming as well"

I'm still hoping for a COMPANY transfer!
