I'm not sure if it's a glitch or because I'm a current subscriber, but the Ahmanson website is letting me add seats to my cart for Once On This Island and Torch Song. It appears the dates are as follows:
Torch Song - October 8, 2019 - November 10, 2019
Once On this Island - June 20, 2020 - July 19, 2020

margaritaville, my fair lady, a bronx take, the play that goes wrong, Aladdin, Miss Saigon, Les Mis, Mean Girls"
Which means the "rumored" list posted a few days ago was accurate. Our season is usually 7+ one or two add ons. Hoping it'll be Margaritaville but I'm sure it'll be Aladdin or Mean Girls.

Anyone else waiting on Albuquerque’s announcement? Based on what I’ve seen they seem to get shows a few seasons after most of places posted here so I’m hoping for a few I haven’t seen already.

Les Miserables - Sept. 10th - 15th, 2019 Jesus Christ Superstar - Oct. 8th - 13th, 2019 Dear Evan Hansen - Dec. 10th - 15th, 2019 Hello, Dolly! - Jan. 21st - 26th, 2020 Come From Away - Feb. 18th - 23rd, 2020 Aladdin - Mar. 11th - 22nd, 2020 A Bronx Tale - May 5th - 10th, 2020
Not a bad line-up. The only show I have seen is les mis. Not especially thrilled about hello dolly, but they always put a throw-back in the season.
Yeah I don’t think it’s too bad either. Personally I’m stoked for Come From Away & Hello, Dolly!
I saw Aladdin in NYC two years ago and didn’t really love it all that much. I figured one of the new Disney shows was inevitable but I much would’ve rather had Frozen. Miss Saigon or Mean Girls also would’ve been nice, I would’ve swapped either of those for A Bronx Tale, as that’s the other one I’m sort of on-edge about.
Besides that, everything else is looking really solid! Not too bad.
I, too, can confirm that Pittsburgh will announce on Monday, March 11th. I received an email from them today saying that an event will be held at 7:30 PM EST to reveal the season. The catchphrase they used is "Set Your Mind On Island Time" with a picture of palm trees. So, I'm guessing that ETM is one of the shows, unless (and I doubt it) they're going with an all-tropical theme with SpongeBob and OOTI.
Anastasia: Oct 1-6, 2019 Jesus Christ Superstar: Nov 12-17, 2019 Dear Evan Hansen: Dec 31 - Jan 12, 2020 Frozen: Mar 26 - Apr 12, 2020 Mean Girls: June 9-14, 2020 Come From Away: June 23-28, 2020 My Fair Lady: July 7-12, 2020

I noticed in the Austin announcement that HELLO DOLLY is shown without a star over the title? Do we know if it's going out as non-equity or without a "name" after the Betty tour?
Phoenix's 2019/2020 season: Bandstand (Dec 6-8), Finding Neverland (Jan 10-12), SpongeBob (Jan 31-Feb 2), and TheIllusionists (Mar 27-29). The ATG venues that have announced so far have been telling me that there will be a season add-on/swap announced later.

Which theater in Phoenix are you talking about? I’ve been waiting to hear about ASU Gammage but they’re supposed to announce March 11th and usually have a bigger season than this.

Nothing has been confirmed, but I really can’t imagine Betty will still be touring by the time it comes to Austin, given how often she calls out.

The Austin stand is a full week, so that bodes well for it still being an equity tour and they just haven't named a star yet. Betty's tour dates are only through August.
Toronto has announced Hello Dolly for March/April 2020, and it uses a poster without Betty's name, and the production shot used is of It Takes A Woman. It seems that in the fall, a new leading lady will take on Dolly. The show would continue Equity (I assume). Toronto never includes Non-Equity in their subscription season.
