Yesterday, on Sirius Radio, Seth Rudetsky sort of unofficially announced that the Diane Paulis helmed production of Pippin will hit Broadway this Spring. I truly hope that this is true. I've been hungry for a revival of Pippin for quite some time. I was aware that there was talk of the Diane Paulis (ART) production coming to Broadway, however I didn't know that it was coming for certain and as early as this Spring. Does anyone have any information on this?

Posted: 11/6/12 at 1:40pmLet's hope a better revival wins the race, and not this clown B.S. that certain parties have tried to foist on the show over the years. It may be a Stephen Schwartz show, but it's not Godspell.

Posted: 11/6/12 at 2:45pmI have a Friend associated with this production, and they say that the plan is to open on Broadway this spring.

I have absolutely no idea what this means.
And I'll always think of it as a Fosse show before a Schwartz show.

Posted: 11/6/12 at 3:21pmthe writing's been on the wall for this to transfer to Broadway. It'll be good to see Patina Miller back again.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Posted: 11/6/12 at 3:24pmI think he is saying this revival is **** and that even though it is a Stephen Schwartz show, it's not Godspell (i.e. it's not ****), so it deserves a better revival.
When my goodbye post was removed: “but I had a great dramatic finish!!!!”

Posted: 11/6/12 at 3:55pmI like the show quite a bit, but the clips that were posted of this revival looked horrible.
