wonder if this might head to Broadway. Spring 2009??

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.

Not unless Krakowski's TV show gets canceled.

And if it does, I'm guessing she would want to reprise her Olivier Award winning performance in GUYS & DOLLS before doing Lola in DAMN YANKEES.

Let's wait and see about a transfer. From what I am reading it doesn't even look like a director has been hired yet.

Let's get the show cast, rehearsed, on its feet, in front of an audience and then we can speculate about a move.

Right now I'm happy with the three weeks.

out of curiousity, do these Encores ever have Rush or promo discounts? And how fully staged are they? Or are they just singing like a concert with a bit of staging?

The Summer Encore production of DAMN YANKEES will be staged like a Broadway show..meaning the actors wont be holding books. It will also have scenery, costumes and chreography ...exactly like a Broadway show....its just Encores always have a full-orchestra.
