According to today's SFGate they are no longer calling it Best of Broadway. The new name has yet to be unveiled.

"The three shows, all currently running Broadway hits, join the previously announced "Newsies" in the subscription series formerly known as Best of Broadway."

As a subscriber, I thought they rebranded years ago. They stopped calling themselves Best of Broadway and emphasized "SHN". Maybe this was around 2005-2006 when they brought in shows like 'Rain' and tried to start a family series in conjunction with the main season? In recent years, they used other taglines like "Broadway Reframed." I thought it was audience members who kept calling it Best of Broadway.

I know they were affiliated for years and that ended some time ago.

The N in SHN stands for Nederlander, does it not?

The press release I received says SHNSEASON. That press release will be up on Sunday Theatre News. It is very comprehensive.

i think some people criticize the pre-broadway shows and how they can be the "best". I'm disappointed that there aren't any pre-broadway coming up, but i couldn't think of a show that needs one.

The last Ship--Chicago
honeymoon in vegas--papermill
All that glitters--toronto
harmony--LA
King Kong--Melbourne
Bodyguard--London
Titanic--toronto

Houdini is the only musical that might need an out of town tryout that hasn't announced plans.
