Did we already know this was a thing? Audition just went up for it.

Yep - It was announced back in April. It will be part of series of three semi-stages musicals in concert with the other two being "In the Heights" and "How To Succeed...".

What odd choices.. it's not like we'll never see "In The Heights" again and "how to succeed" is done pretty often...

Usually not a fan of semi-staged concerts, but I'll get over that for Chess. Hoping they get some great Broadway talent for this
Prayers the rumored revival comes to fruition!

Hopefully that means they're not doing the Broadway version.

I bought tickets to this and am now not-so-patiently waiting to learn ANY name attached to this project. The production itself was announced eons ago and, while I recognize a semi-staged concert version in February means rehearsals are still likely fairly far out, I'm a bit surprised that not even a rumored name has been floating about.
