I wonder if there will be another show there before April?

The shorter preview period and late opening certainly seems to indicate that Cromer will be hopping immediately into rehearsal as soon as Good Night is frozen. A wild spring season for him!

Is this going to be the same onstage band and a minimal set concept from Off-Broadway?

I'd gladly assume it will be!

Sidenote: this might become the most exciting musical season we've had since 2016-17, what a stacked lineup! Last season had a large slew of intriguing titles, but a lot of them seemed to underwhelm many in the end.
Now what we need is for Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande to cohost the next Tonys so that people can see just how incredible the selection is this time around!

Was anyone thinking DBH was the frontrunner? It seemed like Maybe Happy Ending is/was the current critically beloved favorite. (For what it's worth, BWW's review roundup of MHE has it with an average rating of 89.2%; Dead Outlaw's off-Broadway run was 78.3.)

I had DBH pegged as frontrunner when we were more uncertain about MHE's viability to run til the Tonys. But if it can make it all the way to June, I think MHE would have a VERY good chance of winning, partially also with the goodwill of it being "the little show that could".

Considering Jeb Brown’s interlocutor is also part of the band, I would assume so.
Also, I’m definitely seeing Thom Sesma entering the Featured Actor race because he was THE show-stealing moment of the show.

This is fantastic news! Saw it twice and absolutely loved it. One of my favorite new shows I've seen in years. Fingers crossed the concept, cast, and crew remain the same!

I mean, Dead Outlaw is also small, weird, and critically acclaimed.

Oh yes I agree, but given the uphill battle that MHE would've had for 8 months at that point, it might tip the scales in their favor? I still think it could go either way but just speculating.

I low-key want the spinning set to be automated for Bway.…

“Oh yes I agree, but given the uphill battle that MHE would've had for 8 months at that point, it might tip the scales in their favor? I still think it could go either way but just speculating.”
I imagine that 8 months of the same narrative might actually work against it.

And MHE has to make it to June for this to even be a factor, which is far, far from a sure thing even with its growing box office.

Not one "This will never make a profit without staaaaaaars" comment?

Agreed. The verdict is still out on its commercial draw. With Boop, Smash, Buena Vista, Curves all coming in Spring, it will be work to pierce through for any new musical.

This show felt decidedly downtown to me when I saw it. Small and scrappy in a great way. But, it was also one of the top 3 shows I saw this year. It's in great shape, so I don't think it'll be hurt by the short preview period.
I said it in another thread Yesterday. But, The Dead Outlaw vs. Operation Mincemeat vs. Maybe Happy Ending TOny race is easily the strongest and most competitive since 2017. Three fantastic, hilarious, heartfelt, full-package nerdicals battling it out.

I guess hoping for either Boop or Smash will win Tony Award for Best Musical has become hopeless.🥺

Both are just commercial vehicles looking to cash in a their name. I wouldn't expect much in terms of Tony nominations from either.
