Often a big tour starts as Equity and then switches to non-Equity in later years in the tour. Sometimes a tour starts as non-Equity right off the bat, but that is much rarer. I doubt they plan to do that here or they would have announced that. Because if they had gone from Equity to non-Equity, the tour would still be happening, just under a different contract. Because of momentum (of lack thereof), it is unlikely they would wait for another year and then announce a non-Equity version of this. My best guess is that it won't tour and they will release the rights to stock and amateur.

Actually, non-Equity is a new model.

Actually, it happens with increasing frequency. "Bullets Over Broadway" and "Ghost" both had non-Equity tours, right out of the gate, no? Both recreated the B'way staging, with design elements and other duplications.

I think you're right about those two. I would still call it rarer if you compare the total amount of tours that go out Equity. :-)

Also 'THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY' and 'A GENTLEMEN'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER' had/have non-equity tours.

'GENTLEMEN'S' just opened in Fort Lauderdale last night at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, and I've heard it's a very good production.

I am not sure about Bridges. I think it must have been Equity because wasn't Elizabeth Stanley playing the lead? Gentleman's Guide was Equity in its first two seasons then went non-Equity in its third (current) season.

Or am I wrong about 'BRIDGES'?

I thought the Bridges tour was Equity. And the first Gentleman's Guide tour was also Equity, I believe - what you're seeing is the new one that started in the fall.
