Any updates on if this show is still happening in the spring? How late can they wait to announce for it still to run this season? Debating saving a spot for it on my trip.

They’re still trying and looking for more investors.

If there are to be announcements, we should expect them within the next 2 weeks or so. Producers need to get shows on sale. And I would be shocked if we don't get announcements for at least 3 of the following houses:
Barrymore
Broadway
Circle
Jacobs
Lyceum
JEJ

I believe they are starting rehearsals for this at the very end of the month. Unless they just scheduled and booked rehearsals under the hope they would have funding in place by then, its in the works!

This process of finding investors fascinates me.

Bit of clarity, they actually don't need to have their full investor list set before they announce/move to transfer. The production just has to be fully capitalized by 1st performance or when the business starts "operating." So investors commit and then turn in their checks by deadlines.

From my industry sources is that they still have not secured a theater

I think it would be wise to wait till next season, but that's just me. The revivals this season are so stacked. Even with Into the Woods closing (and 1776.. but I wasn't a fan), Sweeney Todd and Camelot are BELOVED shows that (based on creative teams and casting so far) are likely to be critical hits, award darlings, and popular with their respective audiences. Dancin' not so much LOL. and while I'm not saying awards are everything, I think Parade will have a tougher sell this spring through the summer.. If they perhaps waited till August/September and ran though January/February I'd be more inclined to see some success. I loved the production at City Center, but I don't know if it has the steam behind it that Into the Woods had from day one. I've dreamt of Parade coming back for a long time, but I think waiting a tad longer would be wiser. But that's just me.

Telecharge has a test event up for the Jacobs, and, considering previews are scheduled to start on February 22, my guess is that a Parade announcement is imminent.

Do you think they will wait until Almost Famous closes to announce? I know some shows do that as a courtesy thing.

I KNOW I KNOW I KNOW that he is not loved here, but that is the date that Sweaty Oracle said he heard it would start previews...

I've seen the audition notice he spoke of, and that information is accurate. The Telecharge test event has the first preview as February 21, so we'll see when it's officially announced.

Really hope this is true. The Jacobs would be perfect.

Either your industry friends aren't actually reliable sources, or they don't trust you not to post it on Broadway World lol.

Geez if they are starting previews late Feb they surely need to get tickets on sale ASAP. And they must be starting rehearsals soon! I hope it happens but this feels tight!!

Well if Telecharge is testing the ticketing layout, that probably means they announce Monday, Tues at the latest.

I've heard tomorrow the announcement is coming out, and I would assume the Jacobs with the test event on Telecharge.

Cool, thanks all. This was one of the shows I was waiting for for my March trip, and I was about to give up hope on in transferring in time, so I guess I'm a little anxious.

Since an announcement may be coming tomorrow, I saw a couple of months ago a blank Instagram account that might be for this show's Broadway transfer. I don't know if this is legit or not, especially after the whole "Square One" hoax but I will put the link here just in case.

this is essentially going to look like the show did at Encores thus the very short rehearsal time before tech/previews start
18 week limited engagement
