A new behind-the-scenes video with interviews from the creatives, plus a sneak peek of a few costume renderings, and more snippets from some
If the songs/lyrics. I get more and more intrigued and excited with every new bit of information that comes out about the show. I will be at the first preview and will definitely be sharing my thoughts.

You forgot Moulin Rouge which opened late 2019. Tony will probably go to Six or Moulin Rogue IMO."
I wouldn't rule of Jagged Little Pill, either. It's not a strong season, but a lot of shows with positive reviews.There's clearly no frontrunner this season.

I wonder what the running time is although I imagine they have no idea at this point.

Posted: 2/29/20 at 11:06amI keep refreshing the Vivian Beaumont Instagram location tag in hopes of seeing a glimpse of the set and so far there’s been nothing. Hoping someone leaks something soon.

Everything about this show seems a cut above every other musical this season. If it's good, I think it could do very well at the Tonys. I just hope it can live up to my expectations, which keep growing with every new tidbit I see.

Kate Marilley said on her Instagram that they've moved into rehearsing at the VB!! So glad first preview is coming up soon!

Posted: 3/1/20 at 9:11amIn a recent interview all except Tom Kitt admitted taking LSD in the past. I’m not surprised to hear that Lapine took the most of the 3 given he wrote this musical and wrote bizarre musicals such as Sunday In The Park. I wish Tom Kitt had the same inspiration hehe.

I'd be willing to trust Tom Kitt's musicianship and imagination.
After all, he didn't need to be bipolar to write ''Next to Normal.''

Posted: 3/5/20 at 3:40pmJust got LincTix for March 20th! Getting excited about this one for sure. Carmen sounds amazing and the tap footage with Tony seems legit. I’m feeling optimistic about this one. For the sake of original musicals on Broadway, I hope it’s good

There's clearly no frontrunner this season.
When the reviews come out, I wouldn't be surprise to see Six emerge as the frontrunner.

Extended interview clip with the choreographers and rehearsals.
I'm quite excited for the tap dancing in the show!

Does anyone know if Flying Over Sunset will have a digital lottery or rush? Broadwayforbrokepeople says they have a student rush, is that accurate?
Flying Over Sunset#142
Posted: 3/7/20 at 2:42pmThey do have a rush and they'll probably have a lottery. They didn't have rush initially for My Fair Lady because it was pretty much completely sold out for the first few months. I'm sure they have it for this one.

Was just checking in on TDF yesterday evening and got a ticket for week after next.

Was it officially announced? Is it a student rush or a general rush, and does anyone know how much the tickets are?

Let us hope it is a brisk 90 minutes and not another 2 hours and 59 minute tugboat.

Posted: 3/9/20 at 9:13amI feel like this is going to be a one act. Lapine loves his one act musicals.

I read in an interview with the creatives that there are two acts to this one. Whether it's a true two act-er with an intermission is another story (as opposed to just having two distinct parts.)

I’m expecting either Six or this to become the frontrunner. Right now I’m going to guess Flying Over Sunset, as Six seems very different from the usual types of winners, but I may change my mind and start predicting Six depending on what the reaction to this show is.
In all honesty, I can imagine this show either being fantastic or a disaster.

I was texting a friend yesterday that either this will be great or a mess. I’m hoping it’ll be great. Other than Moulin Rouge! (I know I’m in the minority there) or maybe Jagged Little Pill, I’m not all that excited about any of the eligible musicals this year. I think I’ve seen all of them except for The Lightning Thief.
Update: oops, I also haven’t seen Diana, Sing Street or Mrs. Doubtfire. Other than Sing Street, I don’t expect any of these to be contenders.
