Has anyone heard any news about when Hedwig is coming this Fall? Is it still on?

Do you think Hedwig will still be on for the Fall? Would there have been some announcement by now if it was coming... I was hoping for it to be around when I come in October, but that looks very unlikely now HEDWIG Fall 2010

I always liked this show, but is there really an audience for it on Broadway?


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

I know this is completely crazy, but what if Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson and Hedwig ran in rep at one theater? They could definitely create a unit set for both. I think they're going toward the same audience.

Andrew Jackson played a 9:30 PM show on Saturdays during The Public run, and Hedwig could definitely be a late night show.

Just dreaming, but it's an idea...

^That actually does not sound like a bad idea, but it depends on how Hedwig is going to be performed. It's supposedly supposed to be different than the original Off-Broadway incarnation. Whether that means more like the movie we don't know.

I am 99% sure that they want Hedwig to run on the normal 8 show a week course and change the plot to surround Hedwig's "one night only performance on Broadway." There were talks of adding additional characters to the stage production (Tommy Gnosis for one) and take it in slightly different directions.

There's that 1% of me that could be completely wrong, though. :)

I think John Cameron Mitchell is a little too established to be doing late night shows. I'm pretty sure he'd be having none of that.

That being said I pray Hedwig comes to Broadway in any incarnation.

I could see that happening in the reprise of Wicked Little Town.

I haven't heard anything to the contrary so I'm assuming it's still on.

Who knows though, the new season is crazy crowded, and as we all know it's notoriously hard to predict how things will pan out this early.

But man I HOPE HOPE HOPE it happens!!!
