The original plan was the Marquis theatre but maybe they're targetting a different theatre now?
Anyway, I got my tickets for December in DC and I was also able to talk with members involved in the production and they said the play is a complete blast! and it's definitely moving to Broadway in 2022!
I might be late to the party but I saw Aisha Jackson has joined the Disney/Broadway Princess Party cast. Is she no longer doing Once Upon a One More Time? I don’t know how the Princess Party works- does the entire cast attend every performance or just a handful?

The new cast will be announced in the upcoming days so we'll find out
From her social media posting, I believe Lauren Zakrin has joined the show. She's been talking about starting rehearsals for something and she mentions working with the director and choreographer.
"Anybody that goes to the theater, I think we’re all misfits, so we ended up on stage or in the audience.” --- Patti LuPone.
Does anyone know what David Leveaux's actual job as "Creative Consultant" is? That title often means they're the Director or Co-Director (similar to Rob Ashford on Shrek and Jerry Zaks on Addams Family, or more often uncredited like Mike Nichols on My One and Only)...but it's not usually one that's added this early in the process, especially where the actual credited director/choreographers aren't Broadway entities.
Does anyone know who is the producer? I don't wanna sound over suspicious but the fact that there are no named producers to be found in the press release is very alarming. It seems like they are trying to hide the names because they work within Britney's current management which if known, the fans will maybe boycott the show, in fact, some Britney fans already are.
“I’m so excited to have a musical with my songs – especially one that takes place in such a magical world filled with characters that I grew up on, who I love and adore,” Spears, 37, said in a statement. “This is a dream come true for me!”

Britney's former management team resigned a few months back (after Britney's testimony), so I really doubt they are even attached to this project at all. I found an interview with Simon Goldwin a few months back: “This is something so magical – it’s Shakespeare and Spears!” Shakespeare Theatre Company’s artistic director, Simon Godwin, reportedly commented. Godwin told the Post that Susan Bristow, a Nederlander producer, had approached him several months ago about the musical. “She came to us and said, ‘Can I share this idea with you?’ I was delighted that people were identifying us as a space that they want to work with. I said, ‘Yes, I am all in.’”Nederlander also said that he was “absolutely looking to bring it to Broadway in an upcoming season”.
So I believe The Nederlander Organization is behind this
Barf Justin Guarini. How does this talentless dude keep booking gigs? He’s got the stage presence of a lamp shade. There are so many talented actors that could play his part. What gives?
