Most of us know the season (if you don't, here's the link http://www.networksontour.com/futureShow.php), which includes Cry-Baby, BATB, RH's Cinderella, Handel's Messiah Rocks, and South Pacific. These are listed as future productions, but will they renew any of their current tours (Annie, Drowsy, Hairspray, Sweeney, and the Wizard of Oz)

Does NETworks do equity tours, or just non-equity tours?

Yep, they do equity tours. They've done Light in the Piazza and Sweet Charity (to name a few)

Hairspray in continuing for sure, not sure about Oz & Annie (On it's second season), Drowsy & Sweeney are ending.

Ok, that's good! I was hoping for an equity production of South Pacific.

South Pacific will be equity.

It's such a shame that these small town-ers love to see garbage like Oz & Annie, but snub Sweeney, which truly is a remarkably brilliant tour. I don't know if Oz will keep on touring, but I wouldn't be shocked if Annie continued. I would've loved to have seen Drowsy, oh well. Yay for hairspray!!! It's a great tour! Not as good as Sweeney, but still good.

I liked Drowsy a lot. Many people thought it was sub par, but I really loved it.
