I wonder if Mr.. Saturday Night will open at a different theater or not at all this season.

I suppose that there isn’t much rehearsal needed since it the London cast so they could have started previews in october or early November.

So there are still three theaters available this fall
Belasco—booked in spring with girl from north country
Nederlander—booked in spring with Lehman
Neil simon—nothing announced yet.

There's already a show announced for the Nederlander for the holidays--a Harry Connick Jr. Cole Porter concert. Playbill entry linked below.

FYI there is much rehearsal needed. As much as any show.

The rehearsal time for this will be quite abbreviated, which is one of the reasons it is economically feasible. This is the fourth run the show has had so I am sure these three stunning actors know the material cold -- what they will need to discover is a new space.

The time spent rehearsing may be abbreviated, but the time for rehearsal will not.

ryhog, can you clarify what you mean when you say, "The time for rehearsal will not (be abbreviated)"? Is there a union or other rule that would come into play here? It seems that a 3-person play that's been presented 3 times already would not require a huge number of days in a rehearsal room before tech starts.
