Next for the Longacre and Broadhurst?

I did hear someone say that “The Goat (Or Who Is Sylvia)” is still happening…most likely the Longacre. Broadhurst on the other hand, I have no idea

Has the casting changed now that Sarah Paulson is doing Small Mouth Sounds?


A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.

I know Pedro Pascal is attached for Sylvia don't know about who they've got to replace Sarah...I could also see a possibility that The Curious Case of Benjamin Button makes a possible last minute transfer either theater (most likely the Broadhurst) it's pretty much sold out for its entire run at the Public and if it worked for Hell's Kitchen and Hamilton, I see it working for this as well

Benjamin Button is actually going into ATG House when it transfers to Broadway, especially since the lead producers are currently raising its $15 Million.

FWIW, I was told by an agent a few weeks ago that CAT has no cast and should be considered not-happening until they can get a major star.

So that means the Hudson, assuming the Kerr and O'Neill are still spoken for this spring? August Wilson is the next smallest and feels big for a show that played a 400-seater in London.

If Paranormal Activity is currently playing the Ambassador in London, the same theater where Benjamin Button was I could totally Benjamin Button going into the August Wilson in the spring…

Seaview knows what they’re doing.


EDIT. The above was sarcasm. I have been trying to put Greg Nobile on blast for his abysmal theater company and lack of taste. He just does whatever smallish play/musical he can get the rights to and inserts whatever name he can find. Theres no “why” behind any of this. No vision, no creativity, and certainly no talent. The mods don’t approve my posts calling this out so i have to write something positive cause they’ll allow that, and then edit and add my real thoughts in later.

Well dang. That was my most anticipated revival along with The Goat w/Paulson and it looks like neither one is happening.

Re: Next for the Longacre and Broadhurst?

Seaview generally does know what they’re doing for plays with stars — so I’m sure they know that it would be close to impossible to bring in the umpteenth revival of CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF without a huge name (or three), given that basically no play revival can recoup without stars.

Especially given the recent failure of shows with stars who did not deliver ticket sales — CALL ME IZZY, FEAR OF 13, DOG DAY, LITTLE BEAR RIDGE, PROOF, etc — and everyone’s skepticism around THREE DAYS OF RAIN.

Re: Next for the Longacre and Broadhurst?

I think people are really starting to realize the limits of the limited run star vehicle model. There’s no guarantee for prestige, there’s no guarantee for success, and most of the time the best outcome is to just barely recoup.

Yeah, the profit margins for limited-run star plays have always been razor-thin except in the rare case when there's a Clooney or a Denzel equivalent. Rising costs makes that likelihood even smaller. It's a frustrating moment in the industry.

If a show returns 80-90%, there's a chance the investors could be made whole with licensing, a London transfer, a live-capture, etc. But it's very much a "rising tide lifts all boats" sitch, and its tough to make the money back if the show returns 0% on Bway.

Cat just played the NY area pretty recently with Paul Mescal... who could they possibly find hotter to bring in a new production with? Feels like not necessary.

That was STREETCAR, at BAM.

Rebecca Frecknall did a revival of CAT two years ago at the Almeida with Daisy Edgar-Jones and Kingsley Ben-Adir, but it never played New York.
