The info on BWW tour pages is from last year. Is Norbert Leo Butz still with the tour, and if so, will he still be with the tour in the fall?

Butz only did the first couple of stops.

Tom Hewitt and D.B. Bonds are currently the leads.

Um, Norbert only appeared in the first few cities. I believe he left the tour in November or December 2006.

The tour has since been heavily modified and reduced, so it's not the same version that went on the road when Norbert did the tour.

I believe that after the "revamp," they went to the tiered Equity contract.

It reopened in mid-January in Wisconsin with an all-new "tiered" Equity contract and a few modifications in scenery, sound and lighting, the latter of which trimmed two hours off the time it normally took to load the scenery and costumes into each theater.

Well, it isn't non-Equity now, although by that link, it looks like it will be starting in September (which is the last month listed currently as a stop on the tour website).

Thank you. I thought I had heard that, but was surprised that the tour page info "LAST UPDATED: 08/15/06"

Other info like city info had been updated since.

Can anyone say what the new opening number is like? I loved the original opening, so I'm curious what the difference is.
