I’ve heard some pretty strong rumors that it’ll be coming next season. I believe in the Marquee Theater

If it is to come back to broadway next year, what would we say the chances are of Amber Riley coming back to reprise her role? I’d love to see her in this show

Lol Amber Riley will come to Broadway with it and perform like two performances a week. That won't fly here.

Yes, she is:Amber Riley Will Make Her Feature Film Debut In Tyler Perry's 'The List' With Tiffany Haddish And Whoopi Goldberg...She's shooting this film now.
I heard that Sonia Friedman wants the Hudson so maybe after the Go-Go's musical spring '19.

I think part of the reason this waited a season is that Nicholaw was busy with MEAN GIRLS.

A distant friend is connected to Riley who has made it known that it isn't dead by a long shot. Waiting for certain things to line up (like schedules and a theatre).

The west end production is one of the worst things I've seen in professional/commercial theater. The direction is all over the place and is no better than that of the abominable Carousel revival.

Yaaaaaassss!!!! I’m all for it. I was getting worried since there wasn’t much buzz about it transferring until recently.
Im also happy that they’re looking for new leads. Just based off of the clips I’ve seen and montages, I wasn’t really feeling the majority of the principals aside from Amber Riley and Moyea as Effie.
I should’ve been Blac Chyna.

Well that answers that. Hoping Amber will transfer with it!

Didn't you listen??? "We are dreamgirls, dreamgirls, dreamgirls will never leave you, no, no, and all you got to do is dream, all you gotta do is dream, all you gotta do is DREEEEEEEEEEEAM, baby, we'll be there". Does that sound like they could EVER DIE? HELL NO.

I saw the revival last year and I thought it was explendid.
It's very BIG, after all it's Casey, but I think it fits Dreamgirls perfectly!
The cast was amazing, with a big standout performance by Amber Riley. I would change the Deena tho.
The musical never bores and makes a very special case to make this so waited revival a thing on Broadway.

They're not necessarily looking for new leads. The producers are required to advertise all roles as available until a signed contract is in place.

Ahh gotcha. I’m not opposed to the cast transferring as a collective, but just based on clips I think Deena should be recast. Also, I felt like a lot of them had a little issue completely covering their British accent.
I should’ve been Blac Chyna.

Will this be a straight-up transfer of the West End production or will the creative team make notable changes from the West End production?

It says a 2018 opening, but that could change. If so, maybe they're eyeing the Marquis? What other theaters are available this Fall?
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.

There's a lot of chatter in the other thread about it possibly going to the Winter Garden

It says 2018/2019 because it's eyeing this upcoming season (2018-2019). Definitely the spring.
