Wonder if this would pull a "Dear Evan Hansen" and open at an Off-Broadway non-profit before Broadway? That would probably delay its opening to -- at the earliest -- spring 2020.

I think this would make a lot of sense, especially if they make substantial changes, which I agree are much needed. There's definitely something here, but they're cramming far too much in there. I realize it's not a perfect comparison, but they should take a lesson from American Psycho and use an Off-Broadway run to work things out further.

Doesn’t necessarily say to Broadway but it seemed clear.

Could be that this is just the start of a new marketing campaign for a potential off-Broadway or pre-Broadway tryout. I doubt it would mean straight to Broadway.

At first I wondered if it could be the remaining show for 2nd Stage's 18-19 season. But that video makes me think the next step is a commercial production, namely Broadway. The show has a website and social media platforms being run by Broadway advertising agencies, and it would seem silly to spend money on that if the next stop was an Off-Bway/regional theatre.
If the written material of the book is the show's biggest hurdle, the developmental lab in December might be enough to get it Broadway-ready, following the decently-reviewed ART production.

Any possibility this goes into the Kerr instead of Girl From The North Country? There's been talk of Girl going to the Kerr for a while but no announcement.

The lab starts today! As far as I know, the cast is relatively similar. Laurel Harris (u/s MJ) is currently in Wicked (Elphaba Standby) so I don't know if she is going to be a part of this.

I hope this show works out. It sounds interesting.

I’m curious about this. Do they usually cast understudies/standbys for labs/workshops?

She was in the ensemble and had a few featured scenes.

No, that's not typical, since the workshops/labs are of such a short duration (unless, of course, they are part of the ensemble).
