Taylor Swift is actually confirmed for the revival of SWEENEY TODD opposite Justin Bieber.

I thought Taylor Swift had committed to that Dolly.  

No, she is doing the Wicked spinoff called "Glinda".

SOOO excited for the gender-blind/neutral casting! Telly Leung is playing Connor (though in my opinion he doesn't really pass for 4'10", but they didn't ask me)!

Wait, then where is the John Doyle-led revival of Spamalot going? Is it going to the newly-renovated PlayStation Theatre since they FINALLY realized it just takes up space that could be used for a broadway theatre?

I know a 12-year-old who would be perfect for Bobby by then.

and in 9 years I still won't be able to get a ticket to HAMILTON. Let me make my calendar now. Though I'm sure Jessica Lee Goldyn will want to play Cassie again.

Will the lottery be fixed like last time???

With two new hip-hop numbers by Lin Manuel Miranda, will this be considered a new musical?

[backwoodsbarbie]

Posted: 6/10/16 at 7:37pm

Can Lin's nephew play Paul? Will Baayork still be able to direct? 

[BroadwayFan12]

Posted: 6/10/16 at 8:35pm

Baayork will not only direct, she'll play Connie again. After all, Barbra will be Cassie.

Absolutely no one will get the references to Robert Goulet, Troy Donohue or Ed Sullivan.

Can't wait to see Laverne Cox as Sheila!

This revival won't be as good as the original production, which I saw at each one of its 6,137 performances.

I still have no clue who Troy Donohue is.

Also, why did they feel the need to announce NINE years ahead of time

Have they announced a tour yet? Wow, we're looking at a pretty great season already! I wonder if Roundabout is planning to revive Cabaret again... Would Alan be too old for the role?

2025 is looking like the year of revivals: A CHORUS LINE, GYPSY, GUYS & DOLLS, CABARET. Maybe by 2025 we'll finally get that MY FAIR LADY revival everyone's been talking about.

Don't forget FUNNY GIRL. I have a VERY reliable source who promises the production has booked a theatre (Nederlander house) for that fall.

more to the point: who cares who he is

[Jay Lerner-Z]

Posted: 6/11/16 at 10:55am

Bobby (and Rizzo) care. That's good enough for me.

Can't wait for this revival. If I don't eat for the next nine years, I may even afford a premium ticket and sit away from the hoi polloi. #lifegoals

Bumping this for no reason other than it's sheer comedic value.

Also, I'm reading On The Line and craving for a revival but whatever.

Any word on this? Have they lined up a theatre? Have they yet casted the current middle and high schoolers who'll eventually be in this?

I overheard that Mario Lopez is being considered for Zac, I wonder if they other guys will have to wear hoodies
