Barry Weissler is on Facebook. Friend him and ask. But then, you would have to be his Facebook friend....

DO IT, Jordan! Take one for the team and find out for us...


"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."

Mr. Roxy, the plan/hope was to re open it BEFORE the noms so it could get a better chance. We haven't heard much about it since that idea was released.

Nope, unless a show miraculously closes, every theater either has a show, or is booked with one.

Can't remember where I read it but I read that it is looking like they aren't going to bring it back.

Will it be eligible as a revival?


"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

It has to be off Broadway for a minimum of three years before it can eligible as a revival. Remember Times Stands Still?

There was an article (I believe it was in the New York Times) that made it sound like it was not going to be happening. It was the article about how shows are moving to off-Broadway to continue their runs based on name recognition and it mentioned how Weissler had considered doing that for Scottsboro but decided against it. I'm not able to find the link but maybe someone else can.

Sarcasm fail.

He was never going to bring it back to Broadway before the Tony cut-off. He was going to bring it back to off-Broadway. He was trying to find a theater.

HOW-EVZ - he is just WAITING for another ELLING so he can jump on a Broadway bandwagon again. His waiting game may or may not pay off...

(But if it DOES happen, I predict HIGH at the Booth, which is a suitable size theater for SCOTTSBORO BOYS.)

I love this show so much. I hope it plays again soon, but off broadway. To me it's one of the best musicals I've seen in many years.
