I love that we were both so on the ball with this, and that we had to include the titles in the thread name. :-)

Wiseman’s key art for Kiss of the Spider Woman is terrific. The barbed wire-like twisted female torso with arms and legs extended is so clever. And I just love the fuchsia.

Since Blankenbuehler was previously attached to the Spider Woman revival that was being workshopped with Ariana DeBose, I wonder if she‘ll star as Aurora.

Christ, that’s a good season. I’m thrilled I can FINALLY see a production of “Hallelujah, Baby!” That one has been on my list for years, now.

I was going to say: Wiseman's art for the season is really wonderful. These are better than a lot of the Broadway key art we've seen lately.

Begging and pleading for someone else - anyone else - as Aurora. We have several genuine triple threats working in this city who would dance, sing, and act circles around Ariana.

If this is not the revival version, there IS no Sally.

I was so excited for this, until I read the part about the '87 orchestrations. Still can't wait to see it, but I feel the revival benefited from Sally and the revamped score.

Is it common for them not to announce the director of one of the shows, or am I missing who's directing Hallelujah, Baby! (Please not Porter...)

Yeah. I am a 1999 YAGMCB apologist through and through; I'd even go so far as to say it's one of the most influential musicals of its era. It feels like the blueprint for the quirky, small-cast whimsical chamber musicals of the 2000s, especially in the orchestrations. (Take a listen to the cast recording sometime and listen to the no-longer-licensed guitar part. Half the time it's played as if it's a monophonic bowed string instrument alongside the violin, and then it doesn't play a power chord until the Happiness reprise on the bows.)

Hannah Solow has to be Lucy, right? She’s so perfect for it plus there’s the Pinkleton connection

Solow would be perfect casting.
Also: Andrew Lippa is not included in the listed credits for this, so this does seem to be the original version.

Is no one interested in In the Heights for the Fall? Or was it previously anounced?
