MOUNTAINTOP is a monodrama about Martin Luther King, performed by Laurence Fishburne. DETROIT is a drama by Lisa D'Amour. It was at Steppenwolf, where it was praised by Charles Isherwood -- so that's why it's coming to Broadway (the NY Times is already on record as liking it). Austin Pendelton's the director.

"Other Desert Cities is moving to Broadway?"

Yes. It would have moved this season but there was no available theatre.

I second the motion for a revival of TITANIC. Love that score.

THE MOUNTAINTOP is actually a two-hander about Martin Luther King, taking place the night before he died. The other role is a female maid at the motel, which is apparently yet to be cast.

Has anything been announced to go into the Richard Rodgers or St James, apart for the 'Hair' revival.

I thought Zorba, Hedwig and Love Never Dies were opening at some point.

What musicals are rumored to be opening later this season in the fall?

Right now it looks dismal. Hopefully the Spring shows will be more exciting.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Evita is supposedly eyeing The Neil Simon for next Spring.

Personally I would love to see Follies transfer to the St James, but I don't think its likely...

I give Rent a few months then in November it'll die off.

Also if it does continue, they could replace Adam.
