The listing also had an age recommendation of 14+, with strong language and references to alcohol and drugs, which does not describe Purlie Victorious.
So, by my estimation, here's a breakdown of theaters and availability for the fall... any corrections to this or rumors?
OPEN: August Wilson Belasco Jacobs Circle in the Square Barrymore (maybe Harmony?) Jones Golden Longacre Studio 54
MOST LIKELY OPEN: Imperial (assuming Bad Cinderella closes) Music Box (assuming Dancin closes)
MAYBE OPEN: Booth (if Kimberly Akimbo closes - unlikely to happen with Best Musical win very possible) Broadhurst (if A Beautiful Noise closes) Schoenfeld (if Life of Pi closes) Nederlander (if Shucked closes) Shubert (if Some Like It Hot closes) St. James (if New York New York closes) Beaumont (if Camelot closes) Walter Kerr (if Hadestown closes) Lyceum (does Grey House have an end date?)
BOOKED: Hirschfeld (Moulin Rouge) Ambassador (Chicago) Broadway (Here Lies Love) O'Neill (The Book of Mormon) Gershwin (Wicked) Hayes (The Cottage) Hudson (Merrily We Roll Along) Horne (Six) Lunt-Fontanne (Sweeney Todd) Lyric (Harry Potter) Marquis (Once Upon a One More Time) Minskoff (Lion King) Neil Simon (MJ) New Amsterdam (Aladdin) Rodgers (Hamilton) Sondheim (& Juliet) Winter Garden (Back to the Future)

Purlie Victorious and Mousetrap have both been announced but not their theatres.
I wonder how many of us keep spreadsheets tracking all this..."
I keep a spreadsheet that has a calendar for every theatre along with it's owner and capacity, but don't typically track which theatres rumored or currently homeless shows could go into.

Grey House is an open run, I'd assume given the launch date 1 day after Tony eligibility they're planning on being around this time next year as well if they can. I'd say the Maybe Open category most of those shows will close, but you could put the disclosure on any of them if they win best musical it could help a lot. Although I got an instagram ad from Kimberly Akimbo last night saying "Winner - Best Musical," which was truly an amazing way to transcribe off-Broadway awards into advertising without making it clear that wasn't a Tony, so if they're already advertising they've won Bet Musical without having won it + it's not helping ticket sales, I wonder if their max gross of 650k is truly their ceiling for this type of show.
I don't know if I quite agree with that. I think part of the Tonys is that they're outside validation.
I don't have any data, so I can't say this for sure. But I think seeing a musical crowned on live TV (or reading the headlines the next day) is a LOT different than that musical's advertising claiming that it's been crowned.

Fair point! That's probably very true. Perhaps it just felt very misleading to me so I misassociated that vs what you're pointing out, which is very true.
The only show on that list that's above 1mm gross right now is NYNY so that one probably has more runway than the fall, especially with having not even opened yet/also probably being in contention for a lot of awards. KA probably comes down to run-cost/how deep into the reserve they arlready are vs whatever Tonys boost they get. SLIH probably becomes tied to Borle + JHG if they pick up the acting wins, which they almost definitely should? So that's going to be positive for them, but then I'd think w/o those two in the show it'd be hard to sustain, especially given they're consistently <80% cap at <$100 tickets. The others I have a hard time seeing lasting.

Grey House is open-ended but anticipates ending sometime around Labor Day.
