Of course that's right. I guess I need to listen to the cast recording again. It's been years.
But I stand by my point that no matter what their heritage is in real life, Christian Borle, Stephanie Block, and Andrew Rannells don't really look any more or less Jewish than Michael Rupert, Alison Frasier or Stephen Bogardus who played the roles originally.

Two questions (forgive my ignorance on the topic) :
1. With Lincoln Center as producer, will tickets be available through LincTix for this production? As they were with VFTB/Disgraced at the Lyceum, or is that not the same case here?
2. Will this be considered a new musical or a revival?

Gotcha. I only ask because I admittedly don't know much about this show and in the casting article it mentioned that the show was a "new production" which combines the 1981 "March of the Falsettos" and the 1990 sequel "Falsettoland." I am very intrigued!
You can't ultimately compare this production to SIDE SHOW, because this production is being produced by a not-for profit after attempts to capitalize the show (as a commercial for-profit production) failed.
So, yes, this is perhaps a niche show without broad commercial appeal, but there isn't going to be pressure on the production to make money and it should sell fine for a limited run with a subscriber based audience.

didn't realise this had booked a theater already. The Kerr seems like a good choice, just avoid that balcony if you go to buy tickets.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.
no the question becomes: will this be a limited run & if so, for how long??

WOW I want to see this production do bad! we may return to the city in October, so I hope we can see it. I also desperately want a cast recording. Definitely one of my favorite shows that I've never seen live.

It's also worth pointing out that the original production of Falsettos ran on Broadway for over a year (and March of the Falsettos and Falsettoland both had successful Off-Broadway runs prior to that), as opposed to the original production of Side Show that lasted only about three months on Broadway.
I find I am very excited by this news but I admit to being pretty unfamiliar with the show; is this something that would be appropriate for a pretty mature 14-year-old girl?
