Somewhere Kelli O’Hara is saying “Bring me the head of Jordan Catalano !”

I'm fairly certain she doesn't need to pick and choose her projects based on what awards she might get."
duh.

She's rehearsing this now. It's not Glengarry. Her co-star is a male academy award and tony nominated actor.

Rehearsals have begun for a Broadway show that hasn't been announced yet?
Audra returning to Broadway...?#32
Posted: 9/20/18 at 2:16pmThey’re in rehearsals for a show that’s already been cast, (presumably if it’s in rehearsal) has a theater, Director, production team and there’s been no word anywhere about it?

lol

Posted: 9/20/18 at 2:24pmTorch song is a VERY small ensemble cast and every announcement re: cast, etc has been announced for a while. The cast photo shoot was released a few weeks ago. So this rules that out.

Not Torch Song. It hasn't been announced yet. This was very early script work.

What theatre could this possibly be playing -- The Cort? The Kerr?

So it’s not in official rehearsals? Is there anything you can tell us about the timeline?

This is the project I was referring to when I said "It's supposedly a revival of a play by a living writer. (It's not 'night, mother or a production that's been announced)" earlier in the thread.
When it opens, the writer will have two shows running simultaneously on Broadway. It's kind of an odd choice for a revival, but I'll be interested to see how it turns out!

The only thing I can think of that meets these qualifications might be a Terrence McNally piece. Possibly "Lips Together, Teeth Apart" or "The Ritz"?
A different Mamet play could work as well but I can't think of any that fit all the descriptors stated above.

Tantalizingly teased out. Who could it be? Aaron Sorkin? Harvey Feirstein? Kenneth Lonergan? Tarrell Alvin McCraney? Unless it's someone who did the book of a musical. Itamar Moses?
Will now spend the next hour obsessing over what it could be!

I feel like there is a good chance it could be someone who did the book of a musical, which is why I suggested Terrence McNally. I didn't even consider Sorkin, but I suppose it could be "A Few Good Men". Kenneth Lonergan doesn't really have anything that would suit Audra. I'm not familiar enough with Moses' works to say if any of his plays would be the right fit.

I for one would love to see Casa Valentina on Broadway again (yea yea I know it's too soon). Audra would a phenomenal Rita opposite... oh the casting possibilities!

This is a fun puzzle.
Because Bernhardt/Hamlet closes so early in the season, I'm guessing it's not Theresa Rebeck.
Maybe Steven Levenson? Was If I Forget reviewed well Off-Broadway?
Maybe something from Lee Hall? According to his Playbill bio, he did an adaptation of Mother Courage...
But I immediately went to Terrence McNally. Lips Together, Teeth Apart seems at least logical.
Whatever it is, I hope it gets announced soon.
Audra returning to Broadway...?#45
Posted: 9/20/18 at 4:44pmYou sure it’s a play? Because I really want her to do SPIDERWOMAN. And that would be McNally who also has ANASTASIA on broadway.
