Has it been OFFICALLY confirmed that Jesus Christ Superstar is transferring to Broadway after San Diego? I haven't seen any announcement, but then again I'm probably a little behind the times seeing as I haven't been keeping track of all the Broadway news. I don't want to get my hopes up if it's not.

JCS hasn't been confirmed but he has been Bar Mitzvahed.

There's nothing official, but it is definitely happening. Preview should begin in January, right after they close in La Jolla.

Not officially, but Riedel says it's coming in the Spring in the Neil Simon (so good as official).

I don't know--I imagine the NY Times pan scared a few of the producers...

Isherwood shouldn't scare anyone. It's the only pan for a production that (unlike every other JCS in history) has otherwise met with love letters from every single critic its path has crossed. I don't see why, having seen and (cough) heard (cough) enough of the production to view it as another ubiquitous revival. But it's what's in.

Question to Des McAnuf:

How many of the cast from Stratford will follow to San Diego and then to Broadway?

^ From what I hear, everyone in the cast has been told to keep their schedules clear.
