I'm already wondering whether this will be considered a revival -- it has been 3 1/2 years, after all. On the other hand, it will be the exact same staging, set, direction, etc. On the OTHER hand (I'm starting to sound like Tevye), revivals have reproduced staging and choreography in the past and have still been considered revivals. Or with the 6 month engagement it could be considered a special theatrical event, but I suspect they'll put it down as a revival to make the performers eligible for the Tonys (it is, perhaps suspiciously, a 6 month engagement, the minimum amount of time required in the new Tony category).
