A lot of pre-Broadway shows announced for the Ahmanson don't pan out, but they could be referring to The Drowsy Chaperone which might (fingers crossed) star Sutton Foster. Except the show is scheduled for the fall.

This show is in addition to Drowsy Chaperone, but they didn't name it. I think they've been burned a bit too much recently, so they are being careful about announcing shows before they are certain. Last year was a nightmare. They had to cancel the last show in the season because Anything Goes was withdrawn (apparently because of issues pertaining to the upcoming movie) and then the replacement show, Chita Rivera: A Dancer's Life, was cancelled. Wonderful Town also was cancelled last year.

Somehow I missed this on Playbill. This is really exciting and may be the final straw to convince me to buy this season at the Ahmanson.

I'd happily fork over the dough to see Sutton Foster in anything.

It is a bit concerning that this hasn't be updated since June though.

I believe the mystery show is Kander and Ebb's "Curtains".
