Musical wise: the only new one I can remember is My Fair Lady, unless of course Sousatzka somehow makes it here, which based on the reviews critically and on the board, sounds lmost nonexistent, but who knows. Sweet Charity as well maybe?

Potter arrives as well
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Assuming the DC try-out goes well, I'd put money on Mean Girls coming spring 2018.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

The thread title indicates 2018. Those first four shows are all 2017.

Farinelli and the King was confirmed for a fall opening by Claire van Kampen on Twitter, right around when Nice Fish was announced, though that could of course change, as it was already pushed back for said Nice Fish run, and who knows how Spielberg pushing back the start date for The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara affects Rylance's schedule. The Menier's Travesties and Glenda Jackson's King Lear are both likely transfers, and I suppose there's a chance one of Ralph Fiennes' projects (Richard III or The Master Builder) could come over as well. Presuming Sondheim and Ives finish in time for the Public opening in the fall, and presuming reviews are halfway decent, we can probably pencil in Buñuel as well.

The Grammar Nazi in me was cringing halfway through that first, massive traffic accident of a run-on sentence.

Quality and quantity are not the same thing.

Perhaps you have correctly intuited that that's what the OP meant to ask but, again, the thread specifies "2018," not "2017-18 season."

The very first post, by the original poster, says 2017-2018 openings. The OP said what they meant to ask which is exactly what 10086sunset said. Sheesh.
