Amelie? Maybe a play for the fall.
Wouldn't it be kind funny/fitting if it were Anastasia? Then Anastasia would be in the Music Box, and there would be a music box in Anastasia.
Well that didn't take long... but I'll bite. ![]()
From what I saw Berkeley, Amèlie could be VERY comfortable in this theatre. I think it's a charming show and would fit very well.
Perhaps a nice fall offering could fill in the gap? Richard III?
JBroadway: It's been mentioned on this board that Anastasia will take the Broadhurst.

If the Bandstand happens I think this could be a good Theatre for it. Especially if they are looking at opening in the Fall.
The Broadhurst and music box are both shubert houses so it wouldn't be crossing owners.
PHOTOGRAPH 51?
Is THE MASTER BUILDER still coming in this fall?

Lol, too depressing! Anyway, I think that it will probably be a musical. Most of next season's plays have announced a theatre. The musicals of next season have lots of options.

Too small. Maybe GOTTA DANCE? I'd add and say it's also a good house for ANASTACIA.

Let me second this! Really rooting for this show and hoping it still has a shot for this fall, despite rumors of the contrary. I think the Music Box would be PERFECT!
Photograph 51 hasn't announced a theatre (or even dates) yet, but I think it was rumored for the Lyceum.

Isn't Gotta Dance still looking for a fall opening?
Anastasia is going to the Broadhurst, according to the Anastasia forum.
I've heard the Anastasia Broadhurst rumors again and again, but GOD, I HOPE IT TAKES THE MUSIC BOX. It would be so perfectly fitting.
Honestly, THE HUMANS should take the Music Box. Perfect size. A medium sized musical could much more easily fit in the Schoenfeld.
Gotta Dance...September

Lol right. Source?
Didn't the music box (aka Lot 665) already sell for 30 francs to the Vicomte de Chagny?!

LOLOL
Has anybody heard anything about what might move in here next? I think it could actually be perfect for "Bandstand" if they're still planning on opening this season. It would be a shame I think if this theater sat empty until the spring.

What about COME FROM AWAY or PIRATES OF PENZANCE?

Back in May, I took a masterclass with Laura Osnes, she said that it looked like The Bandstand was going to delay until the spring. I really really hope The Bandstand takes the Musicbox and does well. Routing for this show.
According to the twitter feed of Theaterppl Laura mentioned at the Theater People Live thing last week that The Bandstand doesn't have a theater yet, but that she's loyal to the show because it means so much to her.
For what it's worth, Corey Cott did post on his Instagram yesterday a short video of him practicing a song from "Bandstand". My guess is that they might be waiting on a specific theater to bring the show into. I'm surprised they haven't tried to take up the Music Box. That theater would be perfect for this show. But yes at this time, I do think a Spring opening is more likely.
