The latest rumor is American Idiot.

It's not American Idiot.

American Idiot is waiting for another theatre. The Nederlander has a different tenant for the spring.

EDIT: It was just announced. Million Dollar Quartet opens there in April.

Haha, how about that timing? I'm so glad American Idiot is holding off for now. Wow, Million Dollar Quartet is going to drown in that theatre.

That's just great. Just what Broadway needs.

I don't if they're holding off as much as they're waiting for a more appropriate space.

What theater is American Idiot waiting on?

Posted: 11/3/09 at 6:11pm

As long as it gets here, I'm happy. It can perform on top of a double-decker tour bus, so long as I get to see it.

I'm wondering if maybe they're thinking that Fela won't last, and they could take the O'Neill by the spring?

They did a nice job redoing the theater but it seems a little sterile

The last seats on either sides of the orchestra have horrible sightlines & should be avoided at all costs.

That'll be weird-ish for all the Spring Awakening alum!

I was thinking for American Idiot possibly Belasco or O'Neill, but there could be a lot of possible theaters? Possibly the Golden or Music Box if there looking for a smaller theater

The Belasco will still be under renovation, the Golden is too small and the Music Box has a spring tenant. But that other theatre you mention...

"Fela!"...you poor, poor fella.

""Fela!"...you poor, poor fella."

Oh man...I would LOVE to see Michael Mayer kick Bill T. Jones out of the O'Neill. Now THERE is a show I would pay full price to see from the front row.

American Idiot is holding out for the St. James. Michael Mayor really wants it to go in the St. James Theatre.

[MusicSnob1]

Posted: 11/4/09 at 1:07pm

St. James???? Wow. I don't see that at all.

"American Idiot is holding out for the St. James. Michael Mayor really wants it to go in the St. James Theatre."

That's not true.

[adamgreer]

the Music Box has a spring tenant.

Dame Edna?

Yep! That is true.

Publicly admitting who you work for, and leaking information is not the best idea. I am not trying to be rude, but people from here have gotten in trouble with their employers for doing that.
