I read it was an 80-minute version. And like a THRILL RIDE.

Yes they will. LaChiusa is also re-doing "Baby Love" for the big finale.

She also wants to do ANNIE and change the lead to a shy schoolteacher.

It's a Vegas union/schedule thing. They do about 18 shows a week.
I remember seeing A Chorus Line in Vegas. There were only four characters, Zach, Cassie, Paul, Val and Morales. It was really good. You didn't need all that extraneous crap.

It's an unspoken (sometimes vocal) rule that shows should not exceed 90 minutes. Casinos rely on their customers to gamble and drink and do not want to monopolize all of there time in a show. Hence forth 90-minute shows, no intermission (except MAMMA MIA!). 90-minutes is typically the longest that it can go.
Rosie O'Donnell talked about opening for a headlining comedian once and how they billed her because she went over 3 or 4 minutes.

*sigh* Vegas was so much cooler when the mob ran it.
