Love it. I guess the question now is which theater will it take

Help us, Tonynow. We need you. 

I am very curious how this will do being in the same season as &Juliet.

Most likely yes! "Once Upon A One More Time" was supposed to open later this year when I asked a few members involved in the production back in May/June but there has been no updates ever since. Perhaps we'll get some confirmation soon

I prefer this poster to the previous one...

I love that they borrow the butterfly motif that Britney used early in her career. 

Justin Guarini was THE absolute best part of this show in DC. The show is ready-made for high school licensing but it could/should be a star-launching platform for him.

Kinda surprised they’re sticking with Heelan as Cinderella. Her acting/comedic timing was great in DC, but her singing left a bit to be desired. I also thought they would’ve tried to get a bigger Broadway name for the role. Oh well, I guess they’re not really banking on the cast to sell tickets. The music is the star.

Is this really the time for a Britney musical, considering her most recent struggles?  She'll most likely have nothing to do with this show.

Ah, right, I forgot there are no Broadway belters with good comedic timing.

Maybe years ago?
But realistically, all it will take is one of her unhinged Instagram rants about how this show is exploiting her without her control, etc.

Yeah. Pure cringe. The masses won't care but the die hard Britney fans will have an issue with her not being involved in this. 

 

“ Ah, right, I forgot there are no Broadway belters with good comedic timing.”

 

you really think you have something here huh, by all means proceed. What I meant was is she is a very interesting leading lady, and I think her skills are an asset to the role which doesn’t require a massive voice.
