Does anybody know if the efforts to move HONEYMOON IN VEGAS musical to Broadway have fizzled? I'm wondering whether the buzz of great reviews hs faded and if there is still hope to bring the show to Broadway in 2014. Any news or gossip?
The show will be coming in this fall. Between the lack of available theaters and the difficulty surrounding Jason Robert Brown's schedule with THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY this spring, they decided to wait until next season.

Smart move, and I do believe it will arrive, but perhaps not with the entire company from Paper Mill.
They will have to make some major changes from Papermill. Or at least from one of the previews I saw.
With that glowing review from Ben Brantley, I highly doubt they're going to want to make major changes.
They obviously don't want 2 JRB shows competing for Tony Awards. Also, there are no theatres. Hope they do a pre-broadway national tour.
they are aiming for August or September. 8 out of 9 million has been raised.
going strong!!!!!

Are they really going to be able to do this for $9 million? It seems more like a $12-$14 million musical to me.
