WHITE CHRISTMAS, followed by MINSKY'S.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Weren't there people speculating that White Christmas would go to the Lunt, too?

Yeah, but I think once the Marquis opened up, it became more probable that the show would return to it. Plus there was a short article in the Times in which a producer of both MINSKY'S and WHITE CHRISTMAS said they were in the early stages of considering but it was a definite possibility. I doubt the Times would run an article about speculation like that unless it was more probable than possible.

Plus isn't there speculation that BEAUTY AND THE BEAST may be coming back for a limited Christmas engagement at the Lunt? Or was that just made up by someone?

No not started by someone. I know former cast members that have been contacted by the mouse -- they're hoping to produce a "Christmas friendly" B&B with a whole new Christmas scene/song. Scoff at if you'd like, but there will be an announcement come October.

You're correct. It was confirmed in the press release.
Wicked Tour (2/26/08); Wicked Bway (7/1/08); HAIR (7/1/09); Rock of Ages (7/2/09); Wicked Bway (7/3/09); Mary Poppins Tour (8/2/09); Wicked Tour (11/18/09); Wicked Tour (12/5/09)

Yes, Adams Family is taking over the Lunt, but I will totally eat my words in October if there's no announcement about this new B&B Holiday Engagement. Since The Grinch is playing LA this season, there's a prime void for a family holiday show besides White Christmas geared for children to be filled.

Well I looked at wikipedia and it said that there were many rumors last winter for a holiday revival and nothing happened, I don't know what to think anymore. Time will tell.

^Um I actually used it as a source to see if anyone had posted something about the rumors about it and came across the rumors from LAST winter. Well since you think wikipedia is a GREAT source, you will be disappointed to know that they actually were right with last years rumors so shut up ok, TheatreFan4.

Up until 9 TO 5 officially posted their closing notice, WHITE CHRISTMAS had booked the Lunt preliminarily.

If any other project is going there between THE LITTLE MERMAID and THE ADDAMS FAMILY, it will have had to have come to fruition recently.

You mean it proved that there was rumors about it AFTER the fact? Tell us more Nostradomus! Guess what, even if there were rumors last year. This has evidence to aid its case.

By rolling my eyes at Wikipedia as a source? What if there were plans last year and not just rumors but ended up falling through? Could Wikipedia hard hitting investigative journalist figured that one out?
