Island is very uniquely staged and I loved the original and this revival.

I second this - I have not seen the other 2 shows you are interested in, but the way Once On This Island is presented in this revival is extremely imaginative and unique. I thought a tour had indeed been announced, so if that has changed I'm not aware - but, part of the uniqueness of the staging at Circle In The Square involves how it works in that particular arena-shaped space, and I imagine that it's going to have to be heavily rethought for the tour. (If indeed the tour has been shelved, I imagine this could be one of the reasons why.) I would very much recommend seeing this show in its current setting.

Third! Once on This Island is a masterpiece of stage craft that relies upon its exquisite use of the totality of theater and that theater specifically. Not to be missed.

I would agree with the sentiment that Once on This Island would be quite different on tour, while Anastasia and School of Rock probably will not be. I haven't seen Anastasia yet, but will probably see it on tour to save my NY slots for other shows.
