PPAC in providence has revised its season as follows:

The Prom (tour launch) 1/23-1/29/21
Oklahoma! 3/2-3/7/21
Ain’t too Proud 3/30-4/4/21
Summer 4/6-4/11/21
My Fair Lady 4/20-4/25/21
Mean Girls 6/15-6/20/21

Pretty Woman (tour launch) and The Cher Show have been cut from the season. Is PW being postponed?

Additionally, their “encore” series has cut Les Mis from the lineup and RENT has been moved to 2/12-2/14/21. Jersey Boys will return next spring as a separate option not part of either package.

Pretty Woman is supposed to come to Philly the following week.  I am wondering if that will get cut (probably).  Also, Ain't Too Proud is supposed to run in Philly from 3/16 - 4/4.  I guess they are cutting the last week of the run here and sending it up to Providence.

According to the Bushnell in Hartford (Instagram), the start of the Hadestown national tour has been postponed. Any word from other presenters or the show itself yet to confirm this?

It has been announced that the launch of the Hadestown tour is postponed until further notice.

Interesting that Les Miz doesn't say the tour has closed — just postponed until further notice.

Due to these delays, we have changes to our 2020-2021 Broadway season schedule, which include:

AIN’T TOO PROUD, originally scheduled for August 25-30, 2020, will be rescheduled to return as part of the PNC Broadway in Pittsburgh 2021-2022 season.

The producers of TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD are re-examining a new schedule for the tour, including the highly anticipated Pittsburgh run originally scheduled for November 24-29, 2020, and are working to reschedule this engagement as soon as possible.

The national tour of THE CHER SHOW is postponing its tour opening and will no longer be a part of our 2020-2021 season line-up.

The national tour of TOOTSIE, a new comedy musical, has been added to the season and will run August 10-15, 2021.

All together, the PNC BROADWAY IN PITTSBURGH 2020-2021 season will include seven incredible titles, with all shows taking place at the Benedum Center:

So now according to a new casting notice they’re trying to cast the majority of the leads as POC. Is this to “cash in” on the current situation?

Just saw this on Twitter. This is for the Tootsie tour for those who don’t know. I hate to make assumptions but this is just so... odd...

An agent posted on the twitter thread that originally they only had 7 submissions with diverse talent, so they sent out the breakdown again to try and get more submissions from that talent pool. It’s suspect timing though, and worded poorly.

Ah okay I missed that. Yeah agree that the timing makes it come off a bit weird for sure, but based on that and I suppose principally either way, it seems like it’s in good nature.

Good line up, and for those wondering, it is Daniel Fish's Oklahoma!

I am very excited and curious to see how Fish adapts Oklahoma! for and proscenium stage.

Curious when Broadway in Chicago will announce more updates to their season. Currently, Moulin Rouge and Six are set to play later in the year and I can’t imagine either being able to open. Hoping they get pushed back. Also hoping Dear Evan Hansen is able to get rescheduled.

Phoenix (Tempe) just announced that Oklahoma and Hamilton (the first two shows of the 20/21 season) are postponed and they'll attempt to reschedule them in 2021. Can't imagine they'll be the last, as we've already lost Hadestown.

[robbyshishkabobby]

Posted: 2/10/21 at 1:56pm

Just emailed. Broadway in Orlando is now a full year delayed and will start in September as the 2021-2022 season.
•Hadestown (9/21-9/26)
•Tootsie (11/2-11/7)
•The Prom (12/7-12/12)
•Ain’t Too Proud (1/25-1/30)
•Frozen (2/24-3/6)
•Cats (3/29-4/3)
•JC Superstar (6/7-6/12)

Wicked is still being rescheduled. Hamilton and The Band’s Visit have been cancelled.

[ArtMan]

Surprised they cancelled Hamilton instead of rescheduling it.  I had posted this in another thread, but this thread is the more appropriate.  We received an update, a while back on our season in Jacksonville.  They dropped Mean Girls and added Anastasia.    Although I really want to see Mean Girls, I want to see Anastasia more.  Since it was cancelled  prior.

Houston also announced a couple weeks back:

Wicked 6/23 - 8/1 - I really hope this happens. This will be the first show since shutdown, and I could just imagine Glinda coming down from the bubble "It's good to see me isn't it" and at the end "We've been through frightening times..."

My Fair Lady 9/14 - 9-19

Tootsie 11/16 - 11/21

Hadestown 1/4 - 1/9

Hamilton 2/22 - 3/20

Fiddler 4/26 - 5/1

Beautiful 6/3 - 6/5

Frozen 6/30 - 7/17

Mean Girls 8/16 - 8/21

[RippedMan]

Posted: 2/10/21 at 6:37pm

I think that all seems very hopeful. If the shows start in June. Rehearsals would start in May. Auditions would be march/april. So I guess we'll see what the next few weeks bring.

Does anyone know if there is a more current thread on this year's tours?

Anyone know if there is a new thread/spreadsheet for 22-23? Announcements should start up in Jan/Feb.
