Broadway in Detroit has started teasing their season to be announced later this month. First one is obvi Moulin Rouge. They haven't done teasers like this before, so it's kinda exciting for us.

I thought the Curran Theatre went out as a independent company and left BroadwaySF?

That was during the good days of BroadwaySF being run by the Nederlander amid a split between them and Carole Shorenstein Hayes, who owns the Curran.

When CURSED CHILD came to SF, CSH entered a management deal with ATG to oversee operations of the Curran. Now that ATG has bought the Orpheum and Golden Gate outright from the Nederlanders, they effectively control all three road houses in the city (unfortunately).

Interesting. ATG bought the Fisher Theatre in Detroit from Nederlander too. Which was surprising since the Nederlander Org. was founded in the Fisher Building.

Thanks didn’t know that.

I know tours typically land in San Francisco for longer than many other cities, including having sit downs, along with Chicago, Los Angeles. Washington D.C. and funnily enough Cleveland, Ohio also play longer than the typical week but  it is only seven shows spread across 3 theatres, surely they could have more shows come in..

I doubt it. ATG, as noted, controls all three of the main touring houses now. The Golden Gate got some refurbishing done, but it’s still the worst of the three theaters. The Curran is the best, especially for shows - like Kimberly Akimbo and Parade - that would benefit from a smaller scale. The Orpheum is fine for the bigger musicals.

I have gotten many more emails about the upcoming season than I have gotten in the last five years. But, I have also gotten a lot more emails about current shows than I used to get, so I don’t know whether there is something big coming or whether their marketing has been bolstered this year.

• Wicked (8/28 to 10/13) at the Orpheum
• Kimberly Akimbo (11/5 to 12/1) at the Curran
• Some Like It Hot (1/7/25 to 1/26/25) at the Orpheum
• Back to the Future (2/12/25 to 3/9/25) at the Orpheum
• Parade (5/13/25 to 6/8/25) at the Curran
• A Beautiful Noise (6/3/25 to 6/22/25) at the Golden Gate
• & Juliet (7/1/25 to 7/27/25) at the Orpheum

 


Other than Back to the Future and A Beautiful Noise, I'm actually pretty excited about this season and may subscribe again. Does Broadway SF still let you switch out tickets for one production into another?

Nice to see that they're using the Curran, which is a much better fit for Kimberly Akimbo and Parade. The runs have gotten shorter, which has always been the speculation ever since Ambassador Theater Group took over."

 

It is intriguing that San Francisco can only sustain one subscription season, where Los Angles can do two, I know Los Angles is bigger than San Francisco but I always thought the latter to be more artsy. Anyway I wonder what shows Los Angeles will announce and what will end up in the Pantanges and will go to Ahmanson? 
 

I see there is a gap in the Hamilton tour between San Francisco and Seattle, so wonder if is going back to Los Angeles for a month? Makes sense!

Hamilton has already been announced to return to  Pantages this September. Wicked will also return in December. The rest of the season will be announced this Friday the 23rd.

Kimberly Akimdo Oct15-Nov 3rd

Back to The Future Nov 5th-Dec 1st

Wicked Dec 4th-Feb 2nd (Add On)

No Parade?

Will it go to the other series? Before or after the San Francisco dates?

[theatregeeklife]

Posted: 2/23/24 at 11:18am

I'm guessing Parade will be the tentpole CTGLA (Ahmanson) build their 24-25 Season on. This would be a good choice. The Ahmanson is a much better fit for Parade. I don't think we will find out anytime soon however Ahmanson is always the last to announce.

[emo_geek]

Posted: 2/23/24 at 11:20am

WOW- Pantages has a great season. I am sure Parade will go to the Ahmanson. It was already successfully produced by them a long time ago. 

[MATTHEW SCHMIDT]

Posted: 2/23/24 at 11:21am

Agree.  Maybe they get & Juliet too.  I was sure Shucked would have gone to the Ahmanson, that one surprised me.  

[emo_geek]

Posted: 2/23/24 at 11:27am

Ah yes- & Juliet and Parade are a given for Ahmanson 

[bwayphreak234]

Posted: 2/23/24 at 11:29am

I'm guessing the Ahmanson will get Parade, & Juliet, and Life of Pi.

Not surprised to see Back to the Future, Harry Potter, Beautiful Noise and Some Like it Hot at the Pantanges.

But thought Kimberley Akimbo would be more suited for the Ahmanson as that seems more arty kind of theatre than commercial. That is why Parade would be good there. So also guessing that @Juliet will be going to the Ahmanson the only thing it needs 3 other shows. They could pull off a coup along with Toronto’s unannounced 7th show and bring over Operation Mincemeat from London. Also another coup would be Merrily We Roll Along from Broadway. Spamalot would sell if that decided to tour.

Interesting that Harry Potter will be at the Pantages for 4 months. I wonder if longer runs are required due to the special effects?
