Wasn't the Britney musical slated to start this summer originally? Actually.... did they ever OFFICIALLY announce a theatre and dates before the world went crazy? I know there was chatter and I know they cancelled the out of town run in Chicago but things blended so much together around the middle of March that I can't for the life of remember what happened with this one. It was rumored for the Marquis?

It seems that The Lehman Trilogy is looking for a new theater to come in next season. Does anyone know what's going into the Nederlander?

ACL2006 said: "It's interesting that certain shows haven't announced anything(The Minutes, Birthday Candles, Take Me Out, American Buffalo)."

Roundabout has said they’re committed to doing “Birthday Candles” next year and 2ST has said that they’ll still be doing “Take Me Out”, as well.

They just announced their postponement, and so did American Buffalo. Interesting that several shows seem to be jumping on the bandwagon by committing to open in spring 2021.

I wonder where BIRTHDAY CANDLES will go if 1776 is still on for the Spring? I'd also guess and say AMERICAN UTOPIA isn't returning in the Spring but maybe Fall 2021?

. Same with rumored revivals of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST and JOSEPH.Of course, it depends on theatre availability, but this was a relatively weak Tony season, especially for Best Score (really we only had SIX, maybe FLYING OVER SUNSET). If ONE MORE TIME took the Marquis, maybe a limited run of LOVE NEVER DIES at the St. James before Disney came in? And A STRANGE LOOP could take any of the smaller venues, it's not a large show. I'm not sure how large-scale ALMOST FAMOUS is...

The only shows I really worry for, in terms of a return, are DIANA, SING STREET, and GIRL FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY. I think JAGGED LITTLE PILL will try to hold on for a Tony ceremony, same with SIX, WEST SIDE STORY, and COMPANY. I think most of the long-runners will come back, but I'm curious to see about MEAN GIRLS. It recouped recently, but do they think they can get more profit out of it reopening?"





very interesting with everything you’ve suggested because they are very much inline with mine.



i wouldn’t be surprised if beauty and the beast makes a revival in time for Christmas 2021. I would also think Joseph could do a quick sneak in for the summer 2021. As well as a limited run of Love Never Dies.



My two big worries are for Girl From the North and Diana both of which had limited marketing and interest to begin with (but both I wanted to see). Personally I think we’ve seen the end to Mean Girls I wouldn’t be surprised if they toured and then went straight to licensing
