Real Women Have Curves - Theatre?

The show has announced opening dates - but no theatre announcement yet - what would be the best theatre? 
Imperial, James Earl Jones, Lyceum or Music Box?

Allegedly Smash is coming in this season (even though they have been edging us with an announcement) and  has the Imperial

Dorian Gray also allegedly has the Music Box

So out of the James Earl Jones and Lyceum, what is a better fit?

I feel like the James Earl Jones makes sense, hoping Dead Outlaw takes the Lyceum. Smash at the Imperial, Good Night and Good Luck at Winter Garden, not sure about Glengarry Glen Ross.

Is BOOP! even happening anymore? I feel Real Women Have Curves would be a great fit for Broadhurst.

I’m easily assuming the Belasco, Longacre, and Studio 54 will also be in play as open theatres for Spring - as none of those shows are showing legs for a long run. (A Wonderful World might hold on a little longer, but I still predict it in play by March for a new April move-in)

I can’t imagine they will shutter “Oh, Mary” (which is printing money) to move in a new show at the Lyceum.

OH MARY probably all depends on Cole –– and if Cole doesn't want to continue on then finding someone to accept the daunting task of replacing them. (We don't need to list dream Marys here, that's been done on other threads, and replacing someone with a performance that lauded is easier said than done.) O,M!'s gross has climbed each of the past six weeks, which is really what every producer wants to see their show do. Kevin McCollum is also known for taking shows Off-Broadway after their Broadway runs (PLAY THAT GOES WRONG, AVE Q, and RENT). I would not be surprised at all if O,M! returns Off-Bway after Broadway, whether that's at New World or the Lortel or someplace scrappy.

If MAYBE HAPPY gets strong reviews (as some of the early buzz here indicates it might, and Jesse Green seemed to like the show out of town) and sales pick up, that might be enough to keep it going into the spring –– even if it closes around Tony time. Its producer is also behind GLENGARRY, which has no announced theatre, and could play any of those Shubert playhouses or Studio 54.

The spring is suddenly looking a little crowded.

Any intel on when SMASH will announce dates? For a show that everyone knows is coming, something seems to be holding up an announcement

Must be any day now because Telecharge just sent something out an hour ago teasing an announcement of dates & onsale and encouraging people to follow the show on Insta.

Considering how late a lot of sales happen nowadays, there's really no value in an early announcement. They'll announce when they're ready.

At this point I'm assuming the transfer of Motive and the Cue isn't happening. At least not this season. Just based on "available theater math."
