So only a few theatres left - the Hudson, the Marquis, the Barrymore, the American Airlines, the James Earl Jones, the Lyceum and the Golden have productions closing in January with no replacement announced*, and the Broadway still seems dormant. What would you expect/hope to see in those venues?
Personally, I'm still crossing fingers for Lempicka simply because I want to see Eden Espinosa succeed on Broadway. But this is shaping up to be a really competitive season, so I wouldn't be too upset if they delay to 2023/4 or announce a change in direction (why release songs from the soundtrack if the musical won't be taken any further?) Of course, there is the chance that Espinosa could move to the Frida Kahlo musical instead, and that is more likely to be a hit....
* You could add the Winter Garden if they choose to have a temporary production in the six months between Music Man closing and BTTF opening - a concert would be more likely though. Then there are the theatres with productions closing later, such as the Majestic, the Longacre and the Freidman. Could they sneak in something at the 11th hour?
