It looks like one of them is The Little Mermaid.

It looks like another may be Doubt.

And maybe The Scottsboro Boys for the train ticket.

Could the women looking at a jar of light be Next to Normal?

These pictures are always so random! The railroad ticket could be almost anything.

I was thinking maybe Ragtime...?

isn't the train "On The 20th Century"
maybe the hands are "Children Of A Lesser G-d" but it could be "Doubt"

I have no clue about the last one.

The girl with the fireflies VIOLET?
And the last image GRAND HOTEL?

The hands clapping are probably "Applause."

[GlindatheGood22]

They look to me like they're praying, not clapping.

Oh, I hope it's Doubt.

Agnes of God. That would be awesome!

[RippedMan]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 8:28pm

Don't you think DOUBT would be an odd choice? It's almost too soon for them to put on a production of it.

GRAND HOTEL seems like a great choice for them.

I dont think it's too soon for Doubt. They mounted Hairspray and Spelling Bee in recent years as well.

And maybe The Scottsboro Boys for the train ticket.

That would be amazing! But the ticket is for a trip within Kansas, it appears. Any ideas about that?

ticket from Kansas.. Thoroughly Modern Millie.

^That was my first thought, but then I figured if it was Millie then the ticket should be torn. Maybe I'm thinking about it too much.

[CandiceElyse]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 10:46pm

^i thought either that, or it would specifically say Salina, Kansas on the ticket. but i too am probably overthinking. all of the other ones i cant even begin to speculate, what a tease!

Could the praying hands be Sister Act? Might it be launching its tour at Paper Mill? Makes sense as they have a good relationship with Disney.

The jar could be Peter Pan.

I agree with Millie.

They JUST did Peter Pan though.

And I'd love to see them do On the Twentieth Century.

[GlindatheGood22]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 11:03pm

Peter Pan didn't even occur to me but I think that might be it.

On the other hand, I have no idea what to make of the lumpy bracelet-looking thing.

[BWIDB Charlie]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 11:07pm

True, they did just do Peter Pan in 2010.

[adamgreer]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 11:07pm

They just did Peter Pan, and it's currently touring. So that isn't it.

The prayer hands have got to be Doubt. It's certainly not Sister Act, which won't launch it's tour at Papermill, especially if the Broadway production is still running. Besides, the tour is confirmed to launch in Toronto.

[BWIDB Charlie]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 11:12pm

Doubt seems likely, I agree.

[singtopher]

Posted: 2/16/12 at 11:14pm

The ring looks like an octopus tentacle, so I assume THE LITTLE MERMAID.

My instincts for the train ticket are ON THE TWENTIETH CENTURY and MILLIE.

I love the possibility of GRAND HOTEL and VIOLET.

VIOLET, really? Papermill doing some off-Broadway musical that played Playwrights Horizons?

Since their financial troubles, they pick very popular and safe titles now (Damn Yankees, Peter Pan, White Christmas, Les Mis, etc).

Wizard of Oz?!
