An update on the next Broadway season

We had fun when I did a similar posting about one month ago, thanks for all of your responses and input. Let's take another look at what's going to be happening in the new season. Looking forward to your feedback!

Let's start off by assuming these shows and there venues are not going to change:

• Waitress @ Brooks Atkinson
• School of Rock @ Winter Garden
• Fun Home @ Circle in the Square
• Book of Mormon @ Eugene Neill
• Wicked @ The Gershwin
• Humans @ Helen Hayes (if this wins the Tony for Best Play, and a lot of you are noting that the H^2 will be undergoing renovation, won't this show simply move?)
• Paramour @ Lyric
• Phantom of the Opera @ The Majestic
• Lion King @ The Minskoff
• Shuffle Along @ Music Box
• Cats @ Neil Simon
• Aladdin @ The New Amsterdam
• Natasha and Pierre and The Great Comet of 1812 @ The Imperial
• Hamilton @ Richard Rogers
• Beautiful @ Stephen Sondheim
• Faslettoes @ Walter Kerr
• The Chery Orchard @ American Airlines
• Photograph 51 (@ Lyceum or Broadhurst)
• les Liaisons Dangereuses @ The Booth
• New Anastasia musical @ The Shurbert

Are these shows going to last:

• Kinky Boots @ Al Hurschfeld
• Jersey Boys @ The August Wilson
• Eclipsed @ Jon Golden
• Tuck Everlasting @ Broadhurst
• Bright Star @ Cotre Theatre (I really hope this is successful)
• American Psycho @ Gerald Schoenfeld
• Finding Neverland @ Lunt-Fontanne
• On Your Feet @ Marquis
• American in Paris @ The Palace
• Something Rotten @ St. James (still my favorite of art season)
• The King and I @ Vivian Beaumont
• Fiddler on the Roof @ Broadway Theatre
• The Color Purple @ Bernard B. Jacobs

Houses that are empty:

• Ethel Berrymore
• The Hudson
• Longacre
• Belasco

Whre are these supposedly incoming shows going to go?:

• Sponge Bob Square Pants
• War Paint
• An Act of God @ The Booth (We know this is a limited engagement)
• Prince of Broadway
• Motown (We know this is going to be at the Nederlander)
• Diner
• Smokey Joe's Cafe
• Singing in the Rain
• Come from Away
• Charlie and the Chocalate Factory
• A Bronx Tale
• The Present (Staring Cate Blanchett)
• Hello Dolly (I think this will go into the St.James where HD originally opened)
• Amelie
• The Front Page
• To Kill A Mocking Bird
• The Wiz
• Miss Saigon
• Bandstand
• Sunset Boulevard
• Gotta Dance
• Groundhog Day
• Hazel

Possible Transfers:

• The Robber Bride Groom
• Dear Evan Hanson (this is a sure bet to transfer)
• Mary Page Marlowe

We know Roundabout has American Airlines and Studio 54 occupied and know that The Manhattan Theater Club has the Samuel Freddham occupied.

Looking forward to hearing form everybody, let's see what happens!

Typing H^2 is so much more of a chore than typing HH, or even Helen Hayes. Lol.

The robber bridegroom is not going to transfer

I hope Dear Evan Hansen takes the Booth if it transfers. I think that theater would be perfect for this show.

"

Do we know if it's a limited run or an open-ended one? Because if it's limited Dear Evan Hansen could come in after.

Nicole Kidman in Anna Ziegler’s acclaimed West End play “Photograph 51" at the Lyceum this fall.

I overheard that "War Paint" will be heading to the Nederlander after "Motown".

Rumor heard today... Spring '17 LCT ~ Emma Watson in My Fair Lady with Bart Sher, Directing.

Anyone know if this is true?

Not exactly. "A Shubert theater" is different than "The Shubert Theater".

Seems like a risky investment, without us knowing what's up with the Andrews directed Australian version. Moreover, won't Emma Watson be super busy promoting Beauty & The Beast live action movie?

No way My Fair Lady is happening. There's literally no buzz about it. It would at least be speculated at this point.

Newsies Hello Dolly is going into the Shubert not Anastasia

In addition, H squared cannot be simplified assuming that H is an algebraic value. *Math hat off*
