LMM working on THE WARRIORS musical? — Page 7

The NYT article says it will be mostly sung through. Wouldn't be surprised to see some new songs added, they have some cushion.

Anyone know who was involved with the workshops? The only person I remember seeing post anything was Casey Likes. Especially curious who they got for Cyrus and Luther.

There are 35 characters in the concept album, and the cast of the stage version will only have around 20 people.

Something tells me they’re using the pre-recorded voices + maybe even some video of the DJ and boroughs (most of the star names on the album) as a cost-cutting measure.

I’m pretty sure we know each of the Warriors will continue on to Broadway.

Lin is going to cause a huge advance but this is not a show you will be able to take familes or school groups to and is based on a cult film and the weekly run cost is going to be absurd."

And THAT means I can get tickets comfortably.

Nah. School group revenue is so important that I can't see them purposely creating a show that they couldn't sell to that group. In 2024 when I did matinees of Outsiders & Great Gatsby school groups filled 99% of the audience. A show about teenage gangs in NYC - there's no way that's not an educational experience. My only concern is that it might inspire a bunch of TikTokers to stop fapping in their bedrooms & go outside & form gangs where they suddenly break out into highly choreographed rumbles.

Well either way one things for certain: 2027’s gonna be an insane year for LMM, between Warriors, a possible ITH transfer, Hamilton still running, AND the Octet movie (assuming that’s when it’s gonna be released)

I do wonder what the pricing will be like for this. Should be interesting to see how much Hamiltonmania affects it."

I fully expect it to be priced absurdly high

From a purely selfish point of view, I am curious about ticket prices, since I already know I will be in New York City in early April. It’s a large theater but anticipation for Lin-Manuel Miranda’s first musical since Hamilton will be quite high. Demand may die down, or grow more intense, depending on word of mouth.

Prices for decent seats to Evita and Paddington, which I already have purchased, have been reasonable - and they are known quantities (even if I am unfamiliar with the latter show). But I wonder if producers will set prices sky-high for this one.
