I believe it will be a SETA tour contract.

Ah thats exciting about OOTI!!! Never got the chance to see it in NY, I do wonder how they'll restage it for the tour. Hopefully actors still go into the audience and the level of immersion can be kept in some ways. 

New Orleans just announced this morning:

Wicked (season option): Oct. 2-20

Dear Evan Hansen: Nov. 5-10

A Christmas Story: Dec. 17-22

Miss Saigon: Jan. 21-26

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Feb. 11-16

Mean Girls: March 17-22

Anastasia: April 14-19

Fiddler on the Roof: May 12-17

Houston's Theatre Under the Stars is announcing at 2pm today. Expecting:

A Chorus Line - September 2019
Spring Awakening - October 2019
Elf the Musical - December 2019
Once on This Island - February 2020
Pure Country - April 2020
Newsies - May 2020

I believe CHORUS LINE, ELF and ONCE ON THIS ISLAND are tours, rest I believe are locally produced. Not 100% sure though. They will be streaming the announcement on their Facebook page.

Houston's Theatre Under the Stars has officially announced.

A Chorus Line - September 10 - September 22, 2019
Spring Awakening - October 8 - October 20, 2019

They confirmed in their announcement video that ONCE ON THIS ISLAND is the national tour and the other shows will all be locally produced.

Is this considered a complete season announcement, or I wonder if more shows will be added?

I think this is outside the season. Last year at this time they announced Les Mis and Phantom, which were not part of the 2018-2019 season. Last year's announcement came around the first week of February."

Okay, that makes sense, as does the Les Mis/Phantom comparison (I can see how season subscribers wouldn't necessarily want to have two shows that have already been in the area).

I know we're already getting Mean Girls and The Band's Visit, but I'm curious what else.

Also, reading the rest of this thread makes me realize that shows stop in SF for a (comparatively) long time! I was surprised to see that even the equity shows only stop in some cities for a week.

Upcoming announcement schedule:

• Miami: Fri, Jan 25
• Las Vegas: Mon, Jan 28  (announcement ~7PM MDT)
• San Jose: Tue, Jan 29
• Minneapolis: Fri, Jan 31

According to their FB pages, Miami's season has 6 shows (including "Hamilton", and Minneapolis will be posting show clues each day on their FB page at 3 PM CST starting tomorrow (Thursday) until their reveal, which brings their total to 7-8 shows depending on how you interpret the message. San Jose and Vegas should provide some general insight as to what to we'll see out West. We have yet to get any locations for "SpongeBob," and "My Fair Lady" so perhaps they will start out there.

I also got a show survey from the Capitol Center in Concord, NH which had "The Color Purple" listed as an possible option for their 19/20 season ("Jersey Boys" and "Beautiful" were the other options). So, I'm guessing it's returning after pretty much being off for a season. (Survey for reference: https://app.surveymethods.com/EndUser.aspx?E3C7ABB3EAA5B4B5E4)

So Vancouver is getting

Rent, Waitress, Finding Neverland, Dear Evan Hansen, Wicked, and Hamilton in 2020/21.

Anyone know, which tour versions are most worth it? I figure Hansen and Waitress?

Is the Rent 20th any good? Non-Eq? Whos doing it?
