Broadway Grosses: Week Ending 10/15/23 — Page 2

AKarp2013 said: "Has there been any indication on when/ifSweeney Toddwill announce a closing? I think most are in agreement that the production won't go beyond Josh Groban's contract and tickets are still only on sale through January 14. Could they be waiting until early November to announce the production's future to get the holiday & closing demand going?"

There have been reports on here that they are trying to secure star replacements. But unless it's people equal to or greater than Josh Groban (and reaching a somewhat different audience), it seems like a fool's errand to replace. Unless Seller wants to burn up any profits made by JG's run.

Tveit.

That would be surprising, but so was Groban and Ashford.

HIGHLY doubtful (given that Foster has Once Upon a Mattress in January/February).

I'd love to be proven wrong if the rumor is true, but I cannot picture Tveit as Sweeney. Not at all.

Christian Borle & Sutton Foster would be dynamic. To ex’s on stage together…fireworks!"

Let's just surround Sutton Foster with exes, family, and past costars.

Bobby Cannavale as Sweeney
Christian Borle as Pirelli
Jen Cody & Hunter Foster as Joanna & Antony
Marc Kudisch as the Judge
Roger Bart as the Beadle
Beth Leavel as Beatrice Stockwell as the Beggar Woman

Audra McDonald and Will Swenson...
