Are any of the newer shows like The Band's Visit, SpongeBob, or Once on This Island selling souvenir programs yet?

I'm returning to NYC on 3/20/18 for 6 days. Are The Band's Visit, Once on This Island, or SpongeBob selling souvenir programs yet?

As of 3/5/18 when I last saw the show, Once On This Island did not have a souvenir program.

Just looked on the Spongebob and The Band’s Visit websites. Neither lists programs for sale in their online shops so I’m guessing you won’t find them at the theatres either.

The Spongebob online shop has a lot less items than what they have in person, so there might be a souvenir program but I haven't heard of one/seen one.

"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" has a Broadway Preview souvenir program that has some details about the Lyric reno but photos and such are taken from the first London program.

The coffee table book is about the cartoon not the Broadway show, though.

I really hope OOTI puts theirs up in the online store. I've been twice and I'd love to get a program from that show.
Bandwagoning onto this thread in general, does anyone know how long it typically takes for a show to produce a souvenir program? I'm hoping for one from Carousel and My Fair Lady but I have no idea what kind of timeframe I should expect.
Also was kind of disappointed that Dolly didn't do a new program for Bernadette, but the insert they did was really nice.

There doesn't seem to be any way to predict when or if a given show is going to offer a souvenir program. Every show is different. For example, Frozen began previews 2/22/18, opened 3/22/18, and had a souvenir program available on Fri., 3/23/18. The Band's Visit began performances on 10/7/17 and (as far as I know) still is not offering one.

Typically 2 - 3 months after opening but it varies for every show. It's based on the company designing/printing the book, and the producers' ability to provide all necessary assets & content

The souvenir programs for The Band's Visit went on sale at the theatre over the weekend and should be up on their merchandise website by the end of the week.

Does anyone know if there is a plan for a Carousel program?

I was at Carousel Saturday night, and the woman at the merch booth said she expects them in a week or so.

A handful of musicals have their souvenir programs available on Playbill Store.
Of the musicals that opened this year, Frozen’s souvenir program is now available thru Playbill Store.

Though I've visited NYC several times a year for decades, I now live here so I have no reason to venture into the usual suspects like One Shubert Alley and Theatre Circle.
Many years ago I used to pop into Theatre Circle and scope out their vast and extensive selection of old souvenir programs: Broadway, national tours, Vegas, West End -- they had EVERYTHING, not just the current shows. I popped in last week into Theatre Circle and sadly, they no longer carry anything like that. Their inventory now is solely a few of the current shows and that's it. In fact, the store itself looks quite smaller than it did years ago. Oh, well. Those visits to the store many years ago was such a fulfilling hour visit. Last week I was out of there in 3 minutes.

Although this isn't exactly on topic, I feel it's relevant to say that I miss Colony Records a lot these days. The vast wealth of knowledge the staff had was immeasurable.
