I know of three (maybe four) shows now that have ben told they are going into the Nederlander . . . everyone has high hopes for their show . . .
Either way, it's not happening this season so is this REALLY a big deal right now? Lets get through this season first.

Well they aren't all getting the theater, so we'll see how it plays out.
So basically the four shows that have been rumored on HERE are on your list? I doubt the Nederlanders would tell FOUR shows they "have" the theater. So we'll see.

isn't the forum revival dead without Corden? I hope its Hunchback!
the producers said that the Forum revival was postponed..who knows if it will happen anymore. I also heard Dames at Sea was looking to take the Nederlander but they dropped out because of On the Town. Maybe they will come in this season. Who knowsss

Heathers was never moving to Broadway, honey. You know that was a joke, right?

Yes, all four shows I mentioned have been rumored, but until a show moves in - there is are always changing plans. I am just sting that just because a cast has been told a show is eyeing to go into a certain theater, does not make it so. Many things can make a plan fall thru.

My one man show is also looking for a house. The Nederlander would probably be to big though

I personally think it's going to be Amazing Grace, as Disney has never mentioned Broadway plans for Hunchback. I don't think Forum will come around soon.

We should place bets :) I have a feeling it'll be Hunchback but I SO hope it's Amazing Grace!! One thought - When I saw it in Chicago Tom Hewitt was brilliant. Too bad he's in Zhivago. I wonder who they'd get to replace?
Zhivago might close very quickly. I would bet on Hunchback. I believe the Forum revival was canceled, which is a shame because that's a great movie.

"Zhivago might close very quickly."
No it isn't. What gives you that idea? I saw it. It will last a lot longer than anyone will suspect. Just because those who have a vendetta on this board against the director are predicting doom and gloom, doesn't make it so.
Oh no, I didn't mean the post from yesterday. Of course, it was a joke. Wasn't the transfer rumored as HEATHERS was closing?

No. It was always a joke. It closed because it wasn't selling, why would they move it to Broadway where there are more seats?

The Nederlander has been getting the Paper Mill shows that transfer lately (Newsies, Honeymoon). Maybe we'll see Hunchback or Ever After follow that trend, if Ever After gets some solid buzz going
Not Hunchback...just heard not coming to Broadway!
Wow ... thanks for the intel Robbie ... your information is always spot on.
I am actually pretty surprised, I thought the show was very good and with some tweaking it would have a chance. The choir was just beautiful.
I have not seen Amazing Grace, and I know opinions are diverse regarding its worthiness, but I have heard from several people that the show has some significant investor money behind it which may help it push through the crowd and land the Nederlander?
wow i wonder why. The response from Paper Mill was great
